"Testors Plastic Cement Tube"
mooniemac2000
This is plastic cement that comes in a tube, its bonding is better than non toxic glue. It is very thick, but the tube tends to flow out more glue than what is needed. The glue melts most plastic (except for ABS). Preferably, I would pit some on a cardboard piece and then apply the glue with a toothpick.

"Cement the Buildings Together"
williamdcook13 (Escondido, CA)
I use this to cement together all my plastic buildings. It holds the joints in place very well. The cement sets in about 20 seconds, and is fully dry in about 2 hours. However, I think it would be hard to apply without Testors Disposable Gluing Tips, Hobbylinc #TES8805. The only negative is that if you apply too much pressure on the tube, cement will come out for 1-2 minutes straight. Over all, a very good item.

 
"Great glue for heavy bonding"
jtanaka300 (jtanaka300@aol.com)
This is an ideal glue for those heavy bonding. I would NOT suggest using this glue for small parts or anything with clear plastic parts. This glue works by slightly melting the plastic and creating a strong bond when completely dried (usually 24 hours). The downside is that it can have a “string or web” side effect since the gel glue can “stretch” when applied. Although liquid glue such as Tamiya or Testors works well with small parts, it does not have a gel factor that creates a stronger adhesion. I would recommend purchasing a variety of glue for different model parts. Testors, Clear Parts Cement 1 oz Carded (Product Number: TES3515CT) for those clear parts, Testors Liq Cement Applicator 1 oz Carded (Product Number: TES3507AT) or Tamiya plastic Cement 20 ml (Product Number: TAM87012) for small parts (engines, cockpits, etc.). Please note that the Testors Liq glue has a nozzle which makes it easier to apply rather than a brush which can get sloppy.

 
"Old school glue, still gets used in places"
danschulz
What model builder isn't familiar with this stuff? Very hot, and provides a nice strong joint if used correctly. Because it's a gel, some skill is required applying it so you don't end up with a mess. I only use it on major joints that will get filler and/or sanding. Because it's so hot, you can soften up a joint, press together with force, and (after scraping or sanding) eliminate gaps. Does have the ever present problem with metal foil tube glues of a very light squeeze results in too much glue. Only looses one star because there are easier glues to use. I'd like to see this stuff in sold in a jar.
