                  Maplins do it if you have one close by(foamsafe is slow drying so take care holding it straight.)

                    Found UHU por too rubbery and flexible. Any stressed areas bend under load when using this.
                    Foam Safe Superglue and Foam Safe Kicker (activator)
                    Local model shop should stock it.
                    Not the sort of thing B&Q have.
                    Several options here.

                        if it's polystyrene or the stuff that makes the RC Factory yaks, regular CA is fine, just don't pour it on obviously.

                          I use gorilla glue - but like expanding foam, really easy to sand andyou dont waste as much as epoxy

                            Or just heat up epoxy so it's really thin
