promethuem5 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 White Glue. Elmer's White Glue will stick without bonding to the plastic. I glued all of my FP missiles on and the larger missiles. Apply a small amount the the joints and let it dry... it will hold the parts together, but if you want to remove them, you can, and all the glue will come right off.

Pervataru Posted March 3, 2006 Author Share Posted March 3, 2006 sweet and no longterm color issues? Also not sure what forum to ask this in but anybody have good info on preventing yellowing of display birds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
promethuem5 Posted March 3, 2006 Share Posted March 3, 2006 White Glue doesn't seem to cause yellowing.... but as for preventing any plastic yellowing whatsoever, there's really no way to prevent it... luckily, the plastic used on 1/48s doesn't seem to yellow, and there are some tricks to restoring the color, but I'm not really an expert on that. Apparently whitening toothpaste in some form can re-whiten yellowed stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
