Faller for me is best. Used it for years,
Take care I like Marklin and will defend the worlds greatest model rail manufacturer.

David, what is the difference from the Faller expert and pro cements?
I've used Testors liquid and gel forever. It can yelow after years. Does Faller? It's hard to get here.

I have used Faller Expert, Vollmer Supranol 2000, Humbrol Precision Poly Cement and I have found them all to be very good for model makig.

Cheers,

Hi,

I use AMMO by Mig Ultra Glue p/n 2031 for clear parts.
It is like white glue and after hardening it is clear.

For other parts I use Tamiya 87003 glue (white cap) and ultra thin Tamiya 87038 glue (green cap).
Revell Contacta glue is also used some times.

Cheers
Åke

I dont know what the difference is as I have only used Faller for more years than I can remember. Does not yellow as far as I know as I can not see any on the models after gluing. Worth getting and trying.

Take care I like Marklin and will defend the worlds greatest model rail manufacturer.

See down this page. Dichloroethane. Use a fine very clean brush.
