    Gluing Clear Parts.

    Looking for any tips on gluing the clear Canopies/Windscreens to the model. Have been using Humbrol Clearfix, & a cocktail stick to apply it but find it messy & a high risk of leaving trails of glue as you pull cocktail stick away from where ive applied the glue.


    Also it needs to cure overnight. All tips welcomed.... .

    I've used PVA glue & Johnson's Klear, but now I use GS Hypo glue. I got it from eBay & it's easy to apply without fogging the clear parts.

          Thanks Rich, PVA seems the favourite so I will give that a try on my next build

            You can use revell clear canopy glue sparingly it works and bonds clear
