For plastic models, use Testors glue in the orange tube. The blue tube glue dosen't work as well.

I use the testers liquid cement that comes in a black bottle. It has a small despensing tube that gives you great control. For clear parts, chrome and small details, I use clear laquer paint as glue. It's strong and will not fog or haze your parts.

C/A glue used in RC is also good. Instant cure to speed up the building process. I like the medium class of the C/A glue. Thin runs all over the place.

Testors in the orange tube causes strings of glue that can ruin a model. I use Model Master Liquid Cement for general plastic model parts and Testors Clear Parts Cement and Window Maker and have had excellent results with both. If you are tired of cement hazing your clear parts, try the Testors Clear and you will be very pleased with the results.
