Maybe Foam-Tac is the same formulation as Fabri-Tac, only foamy.


I just spent a good half hour combing my regular Hobby Lobby store looking for Fabri-Tac and didn't find it. I know hcmbanjo recommends Fabri-Tac for the application you describe....places where I have been using RC canopy glue (these days Pacer Formula 560).

I'm going to have to try a fabric store some time soon.

Foam-Tac is also similar in consistency to traditional tube cements, but as GH noted, its intent is quite different. I'm thinking Foam-Tac might also work for plastic-paper joints like an Alpha III fin can (or the Super Nova Paylaoder fin can)-to-paper body tube application as well.
