Hello - getting back intot he hobby after year away & de ided to read up on everything before actually starting any model!

Which cement is the best to use these days? I was going to go with the cement I used 20 years ago (Tamiya).

Many thanks..........Iain

Gday Iain
A Tassie boy, huh!
The cement I use is Revell liquid cement, in a blue and yellow bottle with a needle applicator. Seems to work well for me at least. Prone to clogging, but bathed in some warm water and some thin wire to poke down the needle should put you in good stead...
For resin pieces, ca glue should be used (Superglue etc; a thin and a gel type are both often needed)
Best of luck
Brad
