Dumb newbie question on structures(glue and paint)

my 2 cents: i've used Liquid Nails for attaching painted wood to painted drywall. in each case, the paint was either semi-gloss or flat. After 2 months, the work crashed to the floor unannounced. (this happened 3 times, which shows you what a slow learner I am.) Finally, the light bulb went on. I sanded the wood objects, and the drywall itself. No problems since. Now, if this happens indoors, you might want to consider a rough-up of the surfaces you're attaching outside, where it obviously is a lot wetter. I'd venture to say this holds true, no matter what surface, materiale, adhesive, or weather patterns you're faced with. About the only exception i can think of is, if you want to actually undo your work and pry apart the glued seams so you can "re-hash/kit-bash". In delicate N gauge, that could be a problem, but considering the actual real-world materiale you're dealing with, a crowbar might not be inappropriate. Hey, real gandydancers use 'em all the time....sometimes, i'd like to use one on these N gauge kits!
