Although I can agree in general to what Paper Kosmonaut said except for the viscosity of UHU and the smell. There is one point I have got to make. UHU in its standard form is in Germany not only regarded as a office glue but as a universal glue. UHU is overhere synonymous for glue. Very often one says "give me the UHU" instead of glue.
I have to conceed that by now it has been superseded by the more modern contact and acrylic glues but it is still better at least in my opinion than other generic brands. Having said this my perfect choice is something I got in a 1$ store. It is branded as a hobby glue but probably is a PVAC glue although not as watery as the later one. Thing is you really have to get used to handle it. But once you've managed it you can even glue parts together at the joints with out an overlapping latch. As one already pointed out in this thread water based glues give you a bit room to model the parts. I tried several casein and PVAC glues but I wasn't really satisfied with them. But bottom line is there is no such thing as the universal glue for the hobby. You normally need and have more than one type and which brands and kind is up to everybody's personal taste and experience. |
