I've spilt the tall bottles of liquid cement, but never Tamiya's.

Had more than my fair share of CA accidents. Including one that unfortunately made me the enemy of the family cat for about a year. Good luck, don't enjoy the fumes too much. ???

I've done it, all over my new cutting mat. The yellow gridwork came off and had some bubbling, I will be getting a new one soon so ...yeah ....feeling your pain bro. :'(

BRILLIANT IDEA!!!!! I've spilled before too. You get to glue everything plastic together.

I've spilled a bottle of tamiya Extra Thin once before... all over my work surface and a few model parts too, that was recently while working on the Jagdpanther. Im glad I didnt have to go anywheres after that coz Im sure I was as high as an SR-71's flightpath after cleaning up the mess and salvaging the roadwheels from the spill.

Yeah, I have done it as well....while Tamiya cement bottles are generally harder to knock over because of them being a square bottle vs a round bottle, but it can still be done.

Little tip....take some blue or white poster tack, put it under your bottle and then squish it into your work surface. Should hold the bottle enough so even if you hit it, it should have enough strength to keep it from tipping over. Plus it is easy clean up, as it peels easily off just about any surface.

I have done it as well, right on a new wooden desk. Took the finish right off. It makes an excellent stripper.

Why do you think I have brand new mats on my review videos?
Oops! my secret is out!. :-[

EDIT: While I have yet to knock over a Tamiya bottle, I've done it several times with Tenax 7R.

I've knocked over many bottles of Ambroid Pro-Weld just trying to put the cap and applicator back on. I even cracked the lid on one bottle. I stick with Tamiya liquid cement these days along with Testors in the black bottles, both red and blue label, with the nozzle applicator.

I created something similar for my Testors Liquid Cement bottles with a couple of scraps of 1x4 and a hole saw.

Ya, i was working in the living room 2 weeks ago and spilled half a bottle of tamiya extra thin all over the coffee table. Lucky for me it didnt take off the finish or my wife would have ended my addiction pretty quick. Haha.
