model car windows

my kit says to juse mod podge to put in the windows, does this work

I use mod podge almost all the time. It dries clear and has a rubbery texture so If you're careful it can be removed without damaging the plastic parts. Useful when you want to rebuild a model. Make sure you chose the gloss type, they have also the matt and satin finish. I've also use different brands which are pretty good. Mod podge is cheap and does a good job. In the end stick with what works for you.

I've used mod podge, it works fine. I also use Evergreen canopy glue, it works too.

Mod Podge is very thick and a little goes a long way. It dries clear and if it does squeeze out around the window frame you can clean it up with a wet q tip. Once I've test fit the glass piece I use a toothpick to apply it far enough back that it hopefully won't push out beyond the edge of the body. Personally, I prefer clear water based paint like Tamiya. I think I have better control of it and it's not goopy like mod podge.

for modern car kits with the glass going in from the outside i.ve started using electronic repair tape. its the same stuff they use for replacement screens. its black and comes in 50m rolls of 1mm wide for about 30 bucks

I have used Testors orange tube glue for most of my adult life but that’s me.  Tap your windows down and it won’t come thru the cracks..
