FAQs for BSI Hobby Adhesives & CA Glue
Who uses BSI Bob Smith Industries glues?
BSI glues are used across scale modelling, RC building, woodworking, balsa aircraft and miniature painting — essentially anywhere CA (superglue) or epoxy is needed. The foam-safe Insta-Cure range is particularly important for foam RC aircraft pilots, while Super-Gold and Z-Poxy see heavy use in balsa kit building and scale modelling. Skill level ranges from complete beginner to professional — CA glue is a universal hobby adhesive and BSI is the brand most Australian hobby shops stock as their default.
What makes BSI different from other CA glue brands?
Bob Smith Industries has built its reputation on hobby-specific cyanoacrylates and epoxies — the Insta-Cure range covers thin, medium and thick viscosities, the Super-Gold line is foam-safe for EPP and EPS foam aircraft, and Z-Poxy 30-minute and 5-minute epoxies are staples of the balsa-building world. BSI is consistent, well-labelled, and widely supported with accelerator and debonder products. For Australian modellers it's the glue brand that's just plain reliable across almost every material and application.
Can I get BSI glues in Australia?
Yes — we currently have 3 BSI items in stock at our Australian warehouse, with the broader BSI range (Insta-Cure, Super-Gold, Z-Poxy, accelerators and debonders) available to order. CA glue has a shelf life so we rotate stock regularly, and specific viscosities (thin, medium, thick) plus foam-safe variants are the common requests. If there's a BSI product you need that isn't currently on the shelf, get in touch and we'll check what's available to order for Australian delivery.
Which BSI products are most popular?
Insta-Cure thin and medium CA glues are the everyday workhorses — thin for capillary bonding on already-fitted parts, medium for general assembly. Super-Gold foam-safe CA is the must-have for RC foam aircraft pilots, and Z-Poxy 30-minute epoxy is the balsa builder's standard for structural joints. With 3 items currently in stock, selection rotates; for specific BSI glue types, let us know what you need and we'll confirm availability for Australian dispatch or ordering in.
