I am using either low-temp hot glue, or Woodland Scenics' Foam Tack Glue. Depending upon how much working time I need before the glue sets. Hot Glue sets very quickly, the Foam Tack sets in an hour or more. For small areas, I use the hot glue. Large areas get the Foam Tack glue. I am using multi-temp glue sticks from Wally Mart with a Woodland Scenics Low-temp glue gun. You get 25-30 sticks for the same price as 10 of WS sticks of low-temp glue. Works good, but you have to allow the gun to get to full temperature or the multi-temp won't flow very easily. The foam tack is also supposed to be water soluable, so if I want to remove a glue joint, I just soak it for a while and it should come loose. I don't think standard white glue will work with foam as the foam will seal it air tight and prevent the water from evaporating off in the drying process. I'm sure there are other glues that people use. Dale B.
