Super Glue – Cyanoacrylate CA Glue – Tips and Advice
www.sunwardhobbies.ca/super-glue-cyanoacrylate-ca-glue-tips-advice/

INSTA-CURE™ has a water-thin viscosity that wicks deep into joints by capillary action and cures in a matter of a few seconds.

Surfaces to be bonded must be tight fitting and should be held together while you apply the CA around the edges of the seam.

At the moment CAs cure, they give off a vapor that can irritate the nose and eyes, so be prepared. Thin CAs work very well on balsa since they penetrate into the wood and form more than just a surface bond.

Cyanoacrylates (CAs) have become the adhesive of choice for most hobby and household applications.

High quality CAs such as INSTA-CURE™, when used properly, form bonds that in many cases are stronger than the material that is being adhered.

INSTA-CURE™ is a highly refined CA which, combined with its freshness, gives a guaranteed 2 year shelf life. CAs are reactive monomers that chemically link (polymerize) when pressed into a thin film. The very thin layer of water moisture present on most surfaces acts as an alkali, or weak base, which is the catalyst that results in bonding; however, the presence of detectable amounts of water usually degrades the performance of CAs.

It works good, but very fluid

It's really fluid and doing work on miniatures can be a bit tricky. Sometimes if too much comes out then it's a pickle. Recommended getting the debonair with this item as well.

You can see the effect of replacing a missing/broken leg and gluing what will be a wood leg replacement.

Bob Smith Industries Insta Cure Super Thin is the CA version of Tamiya extra thin cement

It glues together small pieces, especially photo-etched parts, that require pin point accuracy and finesse. However, I find that most of the time a drop from the bottle is too much. Next time I will try to transfer the glue onto a fine pin or something.

Good Glue

Very good glue but more difficult to control flow due to thin viscosity.
Rather than putting glue on one side and then putting the mating piece in place, the bottle suggests to put the pieces together and then add the glue which will be drawn in to the gap if I understand correctly. It seems there may be a place for different types of glue.
