| Appropriate Glue for Holding 'em Together I got my first Dragon Warbirds (an F/A-18E) a couple of days ago. The little parts -- weapons, landing gear covers etc, -- are really loose in fitting in and keep falling off. What is an appropriate glue to use to stick them together so that I might be able to remove them later if requried. Thanks, | |||||||||||||

| Re: Appropriate Glue for Holding 'em Together White glue, such as Elmer's will do the trick although you may need to hold the parts in place for a bit til the glue sets up. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Appropriate Glue for Holding 'em Together I like to use Aleene's Tacky Glue. It's white but it dries clear. Because it is tacky, the parts tend to stick so you don't have to hold them for too long. You can buy this glue at any arts & craft store like Michael's or A.C. Moore. It comes in a bronze plastic bottle. Good luck! | |||||||||||||

Thanks for the hot tip HotTrap, I've been looking for something a bit faster than Elmer's. ![]() | ||||||||||||||

| Re: Appropriate Glue for Holding 'em Together Hi, hamilton! Rather than glue, I use a little bit of museum putty, aka tacky wax. | |||||||||||||

| Re: Appropriate Glue for Holding 'em Together Don't use the white glue, it was a ridiculous suggestion.. | |||||||||||||
