Special Effects Cobweb Spinner Pro 12 oz. Metal (classic) with new SS dark cylinder!

These are the same cobweb spinners the film industry uses on films as well as stage theater but slightly smaller for small studios and consumers. These cobweb spinners use Aerodynamic airflow from the spinning fan which blows forward and bends outward from the lid lip as the product inside is flung out from tiny holes that create a stringy airborne web onto the area needed. We recommend using the highest speed on your drill. We have used the same device on several horror films and Halloween haunts over the last 10 years assisting with art departments. It works much better and faster than shooting compressed air from a heavy air compressor through a hot glue gun. 

You can also add a 4oz jar of rubber cement to your purchase for $4 at checkout.

  • The Cobweb Spinner Pro spins out a wider web (rubber cement) over a larger area with a more even flow. Rubber cement is flammable when it spins out so don't spray on an open flame. Once the rubber cement is dry once the chemical inside the cement evaporates (about 10 minutes), it is no longer flammable and totally safe. Feel free to light candles within the cobweb as the rubber cement will just melt when in contact with flame.

    For thinner webbing you can mix on your own, Mix a 1:1 ratio of Elmer's rubber cement and Bestine Rubber Cement Thinner or Turpentine.

    All you have to do is pour a small amount of the rubber cement into the cylinder, place the lid on and tighten with the rubber end cap screw, Attach it to your drill and you are ready to go!

    To clean the cylinder after use, use mineral spirits or rubber cement thinner, Let stand in the cylinder for about 5 minutes with the lid on while gently moving the thinner around in the cylinder, then spin the remaining cleaner out the same way you used for the rubber cement and or rub off the remaining rubbery fluid with a rag or paper towel.

    After the cement is fully dry (about 10 min.), you can lighten the webs up with spray paint. Grey primer looks very good or you can use a lighter tan color. You can also use powder if you want realistic, dusty-looking webs to your display.

    The 8" blade was custom modified with a 40-degree pitch for a more projected airflow.

    *Drill not included and rubber cement is optional for purchase.

    Do not use it on fabric or hair as the product (rubber cement) will be very difficult to get off.

  • After pouring rubber cement into the cylinder and lid is put on and ready to spin out of your drill and nothing spins out:

    • Check and make sure the drill blade is spinning clockwise and the drill is not in reverse.
    • After using the spinner for a few minutes and nothing coming out, Your cylinder may be empty and need to be refilled with rubber cement.
    • Check the holes in the side to make sure they are not clogged. Rub your fingers around the outside of the holes of the cylinder to clear the holes and you should be ready to go.
