Today, I received a recent press release from Microscale on several products to assist the hobbyist. These items are designed to overcome the problem when joining difficult surfaces such as Delrin type slippery engineering plastics and etched brass parts and ensuring permanent paint adhesion.
First off is “Micro PREP”. This is a surface treatment used prior to bonding slippery surfaces such as Delrin. It is used prior to both gluing (bonding) and painting slippery engineering plastics and brass surfaces. Second is three grades of bonding adhesive called Micro Bond. It is available in thin, medium and thick. Hopefully, these products will improve the success rate for both bonding and paint adhesion on these difficult plastics.
