Glue types and uses

[m408]

Over the past few months, I have amassed an arsenal of glue types. Two part 5min epoxy, super thin CA, Testors brush on, Elmers white, and Tenax-7R.

Unfortunately, I don't have a clue as to how to best utilize them. Instead of my usual "trial by error" scheme, I'm asking for your opinions and recommendations. What is best for what? Any additional tips will also be appreciated.

As of now I use the white glue to mock up pieces, super glue for parts that get painted together, and testors cement for almost everything else, then super glue for final assembly.

Tenax-7r or testors liquid glue for bare plastic like engine halfs and parts that are 2 pieces to make one part, front and rear clips on the body.

CA glue for some of the painted parts, engine wiring, and when different material is used for example metal to plastic glueing, like photoetch parts.

white glue for window glass, clear headlights & red clear taillights.

and for masking small areas before painting.

I will often use tube glue also. Ambroid plastic cement is very good.
