Flexbond Worbla Adhesive

Rosco Flexbond offers a simple and lasting way to glue Worbla foam sheets. While uniquely suited to thermoplastics, it provides a flexible adhesive bond between many scenic materials, such as fabrics, foams and wood. It can also be used as a high-adhesion primer and sealer that produces high-quality paint jobs without the finish chipping, peeling or flaking.

Flexbond was originally formulated as a “foam glue” for making stage and screen props. In recent years, Flexbond and cosplay have become synonymous, with DIYers using it to seal and smooth their costumes. It’s one of the strongest, most versatile bond adhesives available and is non-toxic for safe use.

Flexbond Adhesive for Foam

Order this adhesive primer from TAP Plastics for all sorts of costume and crafting projects. Flexbond dries to a hard yet pliable clear coating that does not suffer from the "tackiness" common in many other types of flexible glue even after those glues have had days to dry. Unlike ordinary white glues, which can crack and break when flexed, the adhesive bond of Flexbond remains extraordinarily pliable and robust even as the materials bend and deform. Flexbond is water-based with little fumes. It works excellent on Ethafoam, Worbla, polyurethane and EVA foam to provide a durable coating that will accept paint. The color is the same on all surfaces, giving you consistent results.

Use Flexbond to create a strong bond and smooth finish in as little as two to three coats even for the most complicated projects. It’s water-soluble for easy clean-up of drips and will remain shelf-stable for at least two years. These 16-ounce bottles are ideal for DIYers and occasional use.
