I don't care about plumbers' problems, they are free people...
And this glue doesn't stick the parts together, the glue forms a sticky film.

I still use it to glue models, my son has a huge discount and it is practically free...
And ABS glue, in fact, does not glue ABS plastic, it is more like liquid PVA.

I don't repair the body of a buggy, traggy or monster, for me they are practically disposable, like a contraceptive...

Thanks for all the replies again. The replacement wheels have arrived, the only way I could get the centre caps off to remove the sticky wheels was to drill them, so I no longer have centre caps for this tank. Fair play to coolbank, 12 days from 1st contact I had the wheels here with me. Took a few messages initially to get them to understand I hadn't originally ordered through their aliexpress shop (the place I managed to contact them), but they replied quickly and soon confirmed they could supply the parts I needed.

I hadn't given PVA a thought, but I will try that sometime. I have to be honest, I ordered a 2nd crusader just incase the parts from coolbank turned out to be wrong. So now I will have 2 crusaders to play with
