EDIT by jay@af: posts moved from this thread

Yeah, good ones to know. and is there any glue out there that won't mess up the paint. the glue i have now acts as a paint thinner and gets paint all over. basically the only model glue and paint i have access to are testors.
stupid stores need to learn a few things from your stores and get more of a selection. maybe you guys could talk the owners of your hobby stores to build a store in provo, utah. that would be choice!

I use Revell liquid glue for initial building, but once that is done I turn to Kristal klear, which is like wood glue really! Any mess can be cleaned up with water.

If anything needs to be strong or instant I use Zap Attack superglue, but you can do real damage with that, so experience stops me messing it up! I apply it with a cocktail stick!

With the Kristal klear that Dan said, it drys as a gloss, so be careful if you have to use it on a "flat base" paint.
The other good thing about it is that it can be painted over.

You'll have to send away for it, such is the rarity of these good parts!

I get mine from the UK, so try a search around where you are and see what you get!

I was at a Hobby Shack (now called Hobby People; a chain of hobby stores in CA; they have more R/C stuff than anything else) and it was the last bottle on the shelf, so I tried it. It's great stuff, and I like the fact the lid has the little brush. Way easier to use than a stupid tube.
