Another beginners question--this one about plastic glues

Post Body
Enter your post below.
I use several glues depending on application. <br /> <br />Cyanoacrolyte aka crazy glue comes in several forms from quick set to slow curing and now comes in "flex" (I havn't tried this one yet). This is a strong glue, which can glue just about anything together but it can cause the plastic to frost as it dries. Not good for affixing plastic windows. This stuff also breaks down when exposed to UV. <br /> <br />For Styrene I use Microweld by Microscale It is friendly non toxic but takes abit of time to cure. It can only be used for styrene. It does not "steam" up widows or other surfaces. It is very thin and fows freely. I use this for all styrene models.
