Glue for repair of windows on resin models

Post by JamesonsViggen » Sun Jan 05, 2020 3:40 pm

It used to be that GT Spirit or Otto, in their FAQs recommended a very particular brand, perhaps French of clear/invisible contact cement. Anyone know it or recommend one that be used to re-attach their windows?

Thanks in advance!

Some builders use Micro Kristal Klear glue. Dries completely clear apparently. Can even be used to make small lenses and fog lights

I've used a similar product when applying decals, worked great!

This also works very well. Cleans up with water.
