    I've learned recently about this CA glue brand which seems to be quite commonly use by modelers.

    If I understand properly, its main advantage versus classic CA glues is that instead of activating with air (aerobic) like most CA glue, it activate without air (anaerobic) which seems to ease gluing small surfaces.

    Does anyone has some experience with it ?

    I know it's a french brand that may not well known but it's also part of the AK range, so it could extend its availability.

    CA activation with air is way too slow for me, but moisture on the contact surfaces works very well as an accelerant. It also makes licking your minis less weird...

    That's the point with this anaerobic glue, it's supposed not to dry while preparing pieces but dry quick once joined.

    You don't need to lick them. There's enough moisture in your breath to do the job. Hell, in some areas, there's enough moisture in the air on a summer's day to do it.
