there have been stories that some of the Trumpeter kits have been made
from ABS plastic rather than pure Polystyrene. Black plastic house
piping is generally ABS and that glue would work. There are, however,
several very thin solvents that will work on ABS as well as styrene. I
think Tenax 7 and Weld-on are in that ball park. Give them a try _after_
the normal Testers stuff doesn't bite.
