Is there any better glue to use for 1/8 buggies - Thin, Medium or Thick?

Cheers

The thickness of the glue is what determines how fast the glue sets up. The thiner the glue is, the faster it will set. Also thick glue can be used as a gap filler, to fill the voids between the tire and the wheel.

I like using thick glue, cause I can fill gaps, and glue the tire all in one shot. Also the thicker glue gives you a few seconds to pull the bead out of the channel if it doesnt seat properly...

The best glue out that I've have used is the fusion glue from Racers Edge. It's a little spendy but well worth the peace of mind that once your tires are glues up they won't be coming off. Just don't get this stuff on your fingers, it bonds very fast. http://rccompound.tnwebhost.com/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=21&products_id=340

do you use the red or blue? I use blue. I also like the way losi includes the applicator tip, and that the cap has a pin in it to plug the bottle tip...Fusion glue kicks butt too.

How many oz. is the loctite glue?

I also vote Losi Red. The Fusion glue didn't work too well for me.
