For styrene based kits (Most prepainted kits, as well as Intermountain) I use Tamiya Model Cement. <br /> <br />For resin kits (Grey or white), I use a house-brand Cyanoacrylate adhesive, in thick & thin varieties, mostly the thick. I also use CA for most metal/plastic bonds, as the thick works as well as epoxy for most applications and is significantly easier to use. <br /> <br />For adding steel weights, I tend to use Walthers Goo. Mostly on Branchline cars, as most other cars either have a weight which is positively attached (Sandwiched between frane & deck) or end up with sticky lead weights inside. I still don't have a good solution for flatcar & gondola kits which lack weight.
