Title: Copydex
Post by: Pesky Wabbit on June 04, 2009, 10:45:11
Anyone know if you can still buy Copydex ?

I'm after a rubber solution glue that the children can use. I only want a small amount, so am not really wanting to pay for postage.

I've searched in B&Q, Homebase, Osbournes etc. but cant find it anywhere.  :(

when they used it on Blue Peter, they had to blank out the name cus of no advertising, and called it Rubber Solution Glue. Try that

actually here it is. Cheap too

My local branch of WH Smiths sell it.

Alternatively, would a generic PVA not be suitable? 500ml bottles can be picked up in Hobbycraft, Wilkinsons, Smiths & most supermarkets.

(Edit: Cheaper than Copydex too, e.g. http://www.hobbycraft.co.uk/ProductDetail.asp?ProductID=89163 )
