    I've done tons of HO structures but this is my first G Scale, Pola structure. I need to know what kind of adhesive is best and safe for the structure.
    Thanks,
    George

    I have put several N scale Pola structures together and have always used Testors liquid cement. However, I am sure how that glue would work in the outdoors. One thing I can almost be certain of is that Pola would more than likely not change the chemical proporties of the plastics from one scale to the next. With that said, the Testors model masters glue I use would probablly work as it melts the plastic together, I just dont know how it would work being outdoors. I have never personally put together a G-scale structure together, but if I was, I would use Walthers Goo.

    Just my thoughts

    If it were mine to do, I'd go with the liquid cement.

    How about something like Ambroid Pro-weld? As a plastic welder I would think it would hold up to weather?

    That's the type of adhesive I am suggesting when speaking of a liquid. In fact, Ambroid is what I have used for years.
