Hello, everyone

I found this, as many of us do, almost by accident, since I've read something like it here. A little background: when I started in this hobby a couple of months ago, I found out that the best glue for clumsy old me would be what we call styrofoam glue, or PVA glue (alcoohol-based).
Then I got into the trouble of trying to harden the paper, and read here that someone had successfully tried lacque (hairspray). So I bought a small can of it, and guess what? It's ALSO alcohol-based! So, when I sprayed it over the model, everything started to fall apart, almost instantaneously!:eek:wall1
It was no papaer hardener, but an excellent glue remover!!! Some weeks later, assembling Julius Perdana's Iron Man Mk VII's left leg, I forgot that I should read the right leg instructions in a mirrored way, and ended up glueing a piece on the opposite side.:-o::curse:
But then I remebered the ill-fated hairspray. Just a quick, small spray on the seam, and presto! Glue removed!:mrgreen::thumb:
So, if you use PVA glue, try anything that's alcohol-based, like hairspray, and it will work like magic.
Cheers!:wave:
