    I'm not having much luck with the modeling glues I've been using lately. Most adhesives aren't holding my parts together very well. Has anyone out there ever used Gorilla Glue for scale modeling? I need something that will work!

    Look fo TENAX- 7 R, It is a water thin "plastic bonding agent" that has worked very well for me. I stop by the local pharmacy and pick up a batch of insulin syringes and apply it to gaps between parts. It dries very quickly and bonds parts together great.

    So do I. I've never had a problem with it.

    Gorilla Glue will foam up and then look like crap.
