And the tiny needle applicator is clogged, and it's brand new! any ways to unclog it. I've already tried boiling water which failed. I am limited on supplies such as paint thinners etc. What could i use instead?
Cheers.

Hey Wil I have a thin piece of fuse wire which I ram into the applicator. It had gotten to the stage where the lid was lost and it would clog less! Seems if there is some overpour it dries in a lump over the tip and can be flicked off with a thumb nail, clearing the whole shebang... Failing that, the wire is used to swab er... Brad P.S. I then changed to Tamiya Extra thin cement in a bottle and haven't looked back

Yep a lighter is the best solution for this... In the days before I switched to Tamiya Ultra Thin I used this same glue and always had the same problem. Put the needle in a lighter flame and the needle is clear again.
