What is the best kind of glue to use with this?

I used basic white glue. You can use wood glue, but you don't really need to.

I used regular wood glue. Some of the pieces slot together so tightly they don't need it, and if you paint them, which we did, that helps too.

I used Elmer's Carpenter's Wood Glue. Just a tiny bit, and wipe away excess with a slightly damp rag before it dries.

Yes, but... the glue is water based. You should use alkyd base paints only.

I think it will work.I would try super glue because it is clear and not so noticeable.

I had a similar problem but used crazy glue and it worked just fine after that.

The glue is very sturdy & will last outside for many months. Just check on it every so often to make sure none of the areas the glue has been applied to has separated from any surfaces. My suggestion would be to roughen up any areas where you're applying the glue with large grain sandpaper to help the glue stick better. Good luck!!

No problem here. I used Adhesive Technologies 220-11ZIP24 Multi Temp Full Size Glue, 10-Inch, 24-Pack glue sticks. Just put one it, let it heat up on the high setting for several minutes, then it melted and extruded the glue just fine. I did find warming it up on high, then turning down to low worked better when using it on the low setting

I'm not sure what the manufacturer recommends. I used regular pic glue and cleaner. And everything worked out fine. Hope this helps

My best suggestion will be a hot glue gun. Since its thick enough to fill in all the air gaps in between plus it's removable when it's dry, you can just peel the glue off. Good luck!

Hello, I don't think the glue will work well with plastic. I tried it on a couple of small plastic toy pieces and it did not work. Works great with paper and cardboard. Good luck finding something that works.

I don't think it matters much which kind of glue you use. I have used both in assembling these models, but prefer wood glue. The instructions will show you how to tighten the tissue---pay attention to how they tell you to glue it to the wings and other parts--basically you attach it, spray it with water and you instantly have a beautiful model.

easy to use, just be careful with the glue and clean it with acetone when done

You can by using gorilla glue or crazy glue. I had the same issue and that worked just fine. Haven't had a problem since.

I used goo-gon (A YELLOW COLORED OIL LIKE SUBSTANCE AVAILABLE AT MOST STORES IN HWDE DETP.)- it is an adhesive remover. Put a little on and wait a few minutes and it disolves the glue.

I used a wet type of glue - maybe gorilla - from a hardware store. A bit messy.

I wouldn't recommend it for that. It's rather thick and stringy, I would try a spray adhesive, it would go on easily and it does have a good hold. Elmers has one, it's called craft bond.

I don't believe that you have to use this tape. The glue (if properly done will hold things together. The tape will make it look more finished and cover up any glue mistakes.

Use the glue, the tape is basically useless. Its worth the extra money to buy a small bottle of the glue
