glue for LGB parts?

The running board that covers the roof screws on my 2045 has come loose, and there is the signature brown crud that is left over. What is a suitable glue that won't attack the plastic? I noticed that my MOW/tractor loco came with a tube of UHU 'greenit' for gluing the barrels to the deck - can this be used?

thanks,

Hi there,

keep in mind that you will want to remove the runing boards at some point to get access to the screws, so a silicone based glue, similar to bathtub caulking, or maybe rubber cement will do.

Whatever you decide to use, test it out first on a similar piece of the plastics you are planning to glue to see if it give the desired results. Let us know how you make out!
