Ludicrously Strong Glue for 3d Prints

3D Gloop is a specially formulated adhesive compound designed specifically for the plastics used by 3D Printers.

Okay, so we will just say it… 3D Gloop! is hands down the best adhesive for holding your ABS, PLA, and PETG 3D prints together. No more messy epoxies or super glues & activators that don’t work. With 3D Gloop! you will get the strongest and most reliable bond compared to any other adhesive on the market!

Don’t just take our word for it. Check out what many popular content creators think of 3D Gloop!

Perfect 3d Prints every time

3D printers are amazing machines that allow us to create and explore the furthest reaches of our imagination. The capability of turning a concept to reality in just a matter of hours is incredibly powerful. - That is, of course, as long as the printer doesn't goof up! 

The same 3D Gloop! that is used for gluing your 3D prints can also help increase print adhesion to heated and unheated glass, metal, and even taped build plates on any 3D printer! 

Our unique adhesive formula is easily brushed onto the 3D Print or the build surface of a 3D printer. As the adhesive dries, nano-particles constructed from PLA or ABS plastic are suspended in a synthetic elastomer that rapidly polymerizes cementing the nano-particles in place. This rapid polymerization strongly adheres prints together or the soon-to-be printed object to the build surface!

Multi-Functional

While 3D Gloop! is the best glue EVER for your 3D prints, it also can do some other awesome things!!

Here are just some of the ways 3D Gloop! can positivly impact your 3D printing experience! 


 

Better Together...

Fusing

Permanently and effortlessly fuse PLA, PETG, and ABS prints together in seconds! No messy epoxy mixing required. Just brush on a little 3D Gloop! with the built in applicator wand, dropper, or squeeze tube and press your parts together! 

Nano-particles fuse into the surface of your print as the specially formulated solvent of 3D Gloop! reacts with the print surface ensuring a permanent, long lasting bond.

Smooth as a baby's....

Smoothing

Want to remove layer lines?  Brush on a thin coating of 3D Gloop! to the area you wish to smooth and in seconds, you will see a glossy smooth surface begin to emerge! 

For best results, gently sand your print up to 200 grit then follow up with the application of 3D Gloop! followed by light sanding again. Your part is ready for paint!

Multiple applications of 3D Gloop! can be applied, just wait about 10 minutes between applications.

The Proof is in the Gloop!

3D Gloop! is not your normal adhesive... It took many iterations and a lot of science to finally put an end to some of the most frustrating issues with 3D printing.

We know once you try 3D Gloop!, your 3D printing experience will never be the same! - And that's a good thing!

 
 

Warping is a Thing of the Past

With 3D Gloop! Warping is a thing of the past. The unique adhesive formula bonds ABS and PLA firmly to glass, metal, even painters and polyamide taped build plates without expensive upgrades, heated build chambers, or rafts required! 

3D Gloop! is easily brushed onto the build surface of your printer just before it's time to print. A uniform coating over the area just a bit bigger than your intended print is all that is needed. Put up to 3 layers down to ensure a super strong hold! 

*That said, our Gloop is made of science, not magic. If you are attempting tall, large prints, and try to print in drafty environments, your higher layers could still separate and curl, but your bottom layers never will.  

Once your print is finished, all you have to do is work a scraper/spatula under the print to break it free. Alternatively, if you're headed to bed, you can wait for your print to cool and generally a simple twisting motion will free your print from the build plate.  

When your're ready to print again a sharp putty knife or scraper peels away the unused gloop easily and effortlessly. 


Enabling Far-Reaching Creativity

Large format 3D printers are quite simply the future of the industry. However, one of the downsides of most reasonably priced large format printers is their typical lack of a heated build chamber. This means that printing materials like ABS is an incredibly hard task without upgrading key components on your printer... 

3D Gloop! enables printers such as the CR-10s, LulzBot, Prusa Printers, and others alike to print in ABS without the need for expensive added upgrades.

Now we're not talking about turning your printer into a fire hazard by enclosing it in makeshift enclosure, keeping a space heater close by, or pointing heating lamps on your print. 3D Gloop! makes printing in ABS easier on these stock printers than ever before due to its incredible holding strength.

ABS print on a room temperature build platform!

Printing ABS at Room Temperatures - What???

You still don't believe 3D Gloop! is remarkable?

We all know printing ABS is a pain. Let alone ABS on an open form factor printer. 

As we mentioned before, 3D Gloop! can not only enable printing great ABS prints on a stock CR-10s. It can even do it with a room temperature build plate... (heating the build plate some increases consistency of sucessful prints)

That's right... 3D Gloop! remarkably enables the printing of ABS filaments on open form factor 3D printers with cold build plates. 

Every printer is different, as well as the models they print. For best results, we still recommend a heated build platform for most models, but again, the proof is in the Gloop!  

 

4D Printing Pioneers

Oops, did we type 4D? Clearly we meant 3D, there are DEFINITELY no 4th+ dimensional beings involved with this company! Or are there?

Andrew Mayhall and Andrew Martinussen are the only-slightly-evil geniuses behind the wonderful world of 3D Gloop! …Under the watchful eyes of the Robot Overlords, of course.

They stumbled upon the oh so coveted Science Sauce known as 3D Gloop! while conducting laboratory experiments to create bigger, better, faster, stronger, and more out-of-this-world contraptions.

The Robot Overlords were pleased. (Woo Hoo!)

The Andrews are both passionate, multi-disciplined engineering aces who dove headfirst into 3D printing in 2012. They’ve been one-upping each other ever since and you get to reap the benefits!

3D Gloop! officially started in 2018 with a successful Kickstarter campaign (the Beancounters were thrilled to deliver on time too!). You loved it and they loved you for loving it and you love them for loving you for loving it and…ahem, well anyway…

Working in the cutting-edge industry of 3D printing, they continuously work to be on the bleeding edge of products (ouch! …in a good way?).

These mad scientists aim to create for you the most wonderful and practical Science Sauce ever to enter our universe (or any other known universe, for that matter).

So join us! Go forth and print all the things! Gloop the print bed, Gloop the pieces together, Gloop the world!
