FOAM-CURE is a silicone based adhesive that works very well on EPP and EPO foams. It is crystal clear and cures to a more flexible consistency than CA. It is, however, not instant bonding like CA and there is no accelerator to speed it’s curing. To obtain a faster initial bond when bonding two pieces, FOAM-CURE can be applied to one piece and after the two are joined, they can then be pulled apart. After letting it air dry for about ten minutes, FOAM-CURE will act like a contact cement when the parts are rejoined, resulting in enough tack strength to allow the next steps of assembly. Full strength is reached in 10-12 hours. FOAM-CURE works with all foams, and will actually bond most other materials. It will bond wood and plastic to foam, and is a good canopy glue. FOAM-CURE does not, however, cure flexible enough to act as a hinge for aircraft control surfaces. Its limitations occur when bonding large areas of two non-porous materials. FOAM-CURE requires exposure to air for drying. If one tried to bond, for example, a half-dollar coin to glass, over 90% of the adhesive would never cure, since the solvent it contains would have no where to evaporate. A small amount of denatured alcohol can be mixed into the Foam-Cure to make it thinner. Directions in 5 different languages.

Works great on cardboard
I'm using this glue to hold a cardboard 3D puzzle together. The long, thin nozzle makes it really easy to apply a small amount of glue, get into tight spots and doesn't get clogged. Dries shiney, but crystal clear. It rolls off your fingers when dry. It is a bit gooey so it has a tendency to leave "spider webs" like most modeling glue, but they are easily removed. One issue I really don't like is when I need to use a heavy blob, apparently the evaporation of the solvent causes air bubbles that dry to hard bumps. The clever attachment of the "never misplace" cap is nice in theory, but it just makes it guaranteed to constantly get in the way.

Ski goggle foam repair - Yes!
Found this on a Google search. A YouTube video showed how to repair ski goggle foam using this.I repaired 2 sets of goggles (5 minutes each): One was the joint between the plastic frame and the foam (used 2 narrow beads instead of 1 larger one). 2nd was between the foam and a thin layer of fleece material that contacts your face (spread glue out to avoid saturating thin layer).Both turned out great. I wore mine skiing the next day. Foam stayed on, wasn't hard or scratchy.Ease of use: No mixing, dries in a reasonable time. It's stringy, so have paper towels on hand.Value: I used <1% of the bottle, but compared to the cost of new goggles, even if I chucked out the rest, it's a huge savings :-)Happy customer.

Works great. Better than Beacon 3in1 and easier to use than Foan2Foam because of the bottle. The volume of glue is also more for the price than any other I've tested. It will not etch your foam as Beacon 3in1 does. Apply a line, push the parts together to spread the line out, take apart and set aside for at least 5 minutes, then press the pieces back together. It grabs tight enough to hold a folded foam airfoil together.

worth it
if you fly foam rc planes this is the best glue to use trust me the best! takes 10 hours to full cure but worth the wait

A different Adhesive
Not sure I like it or not. To early to tell. I used it on a foam model airplane made in Germany and it's not the typical foam we get here in the USA. The adhesive seems to bond well but it takes a full 12 hours to fully harden. I would have preferred to use a super glue like BSI sells but it wasn't recommended for all mating surfaces.

Great stuff! True foam cure!
This stuff is great. It does take time to take hold and even longer to dry, but it works great. I applied a good amount on the foam spikes I attached to the spiderman mask. I made sure to give it time to gold and let it cure overnight. Looks and works great!

Did a great job of putting together a plane that had been smashed into many pieces. Now it looks like new!

This held two very large pieces of foam (two twin size joined to make a queen size) together very well.
