For the Atak stuff I used 5min Epoxy like they recommend. Sets quick enough. Edges were glued and reinforced with CA when needed.

Not sure l want to go there again, but Shoegoo would do a good job. Sticks to everything, fills gaps, resilient bond, easy to clean, dries in minutes and remains clear. All good model shops stock it, plus of course EBay. ;)

Also sold as E6000.

Thanks Have some Evostik serious glue ,and if thats no good better buy some 5min epoxy. Does the epoxy resin have a short shelf life once opened ? That might have been the problem.
