Blaster

Not the same prices I had to pay for. I found better deals but that what on my laptop (on phone now). I should have them all at the latest of the 18th of this month.

I don't know too much about doopydoo's, but I know that a lot of Garrison and Legion members use this kit. Almost all of my stuff came from England, blaster, armor, etc. Look forward to seeing your progress :thumbs:

Wash your parts really good with hot soap and water before you pain them. Then wash them again. My doopy doos kit is all held together with E6000 and still going strong.

I love E6000. It sticks to everything. And is removable if you F up.

Those are resin parts. Cyanoacrylte (fancy super glue) works AWESOME on resin. And is strong as all get out. IF you dont have the patience for E6000.

Does E6000 have a long dry time?

Take a look over at http://www.whitearmor.net
Lots of guys MOD Doopy Doo's all the time over there.

I just picked up a HyperFirm E-11 yesterday and came as you see it.

It 24 hrs for full cure time. Usually tacky and will hold in a few hours. Depends on the temperature at the time.

I would still use super glue. There is no need to use E6000. And its very thick, so you might get a lot of "oozing" from between the parts.

The "oozing" areas are pretty easy to clean up, though. Just let it partially cure and rub it off. I made my DC15 with E-6000 and it worked pretty well. Plus, with E-6000, if you screw things up, it's easier to take apart than when using crazy glue. I should know that more than anybody. :lol:
