Aristo side frames

Has anyone ever tried gluing anything to the side frames of an Aristocraft diesel? If so, did you have any trouble?

I’m considering making some modifications to the side frames on my RS-3, including adding some extra detail. I just want to make sure it’s not some kind of plastic that can’t be glued, before I start hacking things up.

Don’t know if it will help Ray, but I have broken a couple of brake shoes off my streamliner trucks, and have managed to glue them back on with liquid plastic cement.

Thanks. I really don’t think there will be any problem but I just wanted to make sure. I have heard of people having trouble gluing some types of plastic from other manufacturers.

Ray,
I use glue on all my kitbashes. It holds any maufacturers plastic together. I use Zap-A-Gap in the green bottle. I also use the spray excellerater, it hardens almost imeaditly. In fact the B-unit in my signatue photo is glued together with it. Rex
