Default Foam Safe CA

What is everybody using to gule there foamies, I bought some foam safe CA, but it's not working very well, I can't even get my fingers to glue together like regular CA in a timely manner, am I doing somthing wrong?, this is my first time working with this material. I'm putting together a E-Flight Tribute.

Thanks, I think my LHS carries that gold lable CA with the gold price, very expensive, but think I'll suck it up[:@]

Foam safe CA doesn't work "instantly" like regular CA. It's faster than 5 minute epoxy, though.

To expedite the situation, you should consider some foam-safe kicker, like the Bob Smith brand.

Just watch the kicker on depron as it will eat it very nicely.

I have had great success with the Gold label CA and CA accelerator. All my foam gluing is dones on EPP products.
