1) Testors has a glue for clear plastic pieces

2) Diluted white glue

3) Micro Glaze from Micro Mark

Apply them all with a toothpick.

To be completely honest with you, I honestly think they are all the same thing.

 It's also possible to glaze entire windows with this stuff instead of using the plastic pieces in the kit.  One of these windows was glazed.  Can you guess which 1 of the 4?

There has GOT to be a better way of gluing in clear plastic windows.  Whenever I do it, no matter how small the amount of glue I use the windows “fog” up.  I might as well build a building without the windows or paint over them.

What do you people do?  Any advice?

Thanks.
