Making homemade Filler Goop

A home-made filler and glue

On the right is a bottle of liquid polystyrene cement. On the left is a bottle of poly goop made by adding small chips of styrene (shown below the bottle) to the poly cement.

This article shows how to make a useful product that both glues and fills gaps at the same time.

Making Poly-Goop

Making poly-goop is very easy. Take a half-used bottle of liquid polystyrene cement and add to it small chips of styrene cut from waste sprue.

Here it is possible to see the 'gloopy' consistency of the poly goop.

Polystyrene cement works by dissolving the surface of the styrene. The styrene chips added to the liquid cement will gradually dissolve to make a thick goop. How long it will take to dissolve depends on the strength of the poly cement, but it may be a few days, or a couple of weeks. The thickness of the goop depends on how many chips have been added.

The goop can be made thicker by adding more styrene chips or thinned by adding more liquid poly cement. The eventual colour of the poly goop will depend on the colour of the styrene chips added.
