Secure joins for specialty plastics with Tamiya 87211

The Tamiya 87211 set is designed for modellers who need to glue hard-to-bond materials such as polypropylene (PP), polyethylene (PE), polyacetal (POM) and EVA. The kit contains a 3g primer plus a 3g CA cement to boost adhesion where standard glues struggle.

Prep and bonding steps

Apply a thin coat of primer to the non-styrene part and wait until it is fully dry. Then put CA cement on just one of the mating surfaces and join the pieces. This approach helps create a dependable bond, including when mating these plastics to regular styrene components.

Typical uses in modelling

Common applications for this kit include:

  • Polypropylene (PP): Used in many Mini 4WD wheel designs and lightweight body parts.
  • Polyethylene (PE): Found in poly caps and components from educational construction sets.
  • Polyacetal (POM): Often used for durable chassis sections in small race models.
  • EVA: Employed in flexible tracks and protective padding for scale military builds.
This set targets PP, PE, POM and EVA specifically. Nylon and some other engineering plastics have different surface chemistries, so test on a scrap or consult material guides before use.
Work in a dry, warm, well ventilated space. Very cold or humid conditions slow primer drying and can weaken the bond. Room temperature around 20-25 C is ideal.
Yes, once the bond has fully cured you can lightly sand or trim the joint. Use gentle strokes and fine grit to avoid damaging adjacent areas.
