      You need to scrape the paint off where you are glueing so that you are glueing plastic to plastic and not plastic to paint.

        Thanks for the reply. I've tried my best in doing so cause I know you are right. Still it's hard for me to glue without spilling even a tiny bit and this glue just loves to eat paint ;-) Any particular brand or type of glue you can recommend?

          You can accurately apply Revell Contacta glue using the provided needle Cullyn. You don't need to use much, it's pretty strong stuff. If you are having trouble fixing the parts together, then the parts are probably still covered in paint or the paint is leaching into the gaps as the glue melts it. I've not made a car before but one thing you can try is to mask the surrounding areas to be bonded closely with masking tape to help stop the glue dripping onto your pre-painted parts. It's hard to suggest anything else without seeing the problem. Maybe start a new thread and we can comment further to help you?
