I'm always looking for new ideas and today I had a little trouble gluing in a windshield so I thought I would ask what type of glues do ya'll use for your glass? I've used either 5 minute epoxy or the Crafter's Pick (Hobby Lobby) with ok success. But I'm wondering if there's a better glue. Ideas or suggestions please? Any special techniques?

Brands I've been using:

I dip all my clear parts in futureshine, then attach with Duro super glue gel and a mechanical pencil. The futureshine gives the part more clarity and prevents fogging of the part from the cyanoacrylate. The pencil is just to place the glue dots.

I like watch crystal cement, or Formula 560 Canopy Glue.

So if you get a little on the glass you can't see it?

I've started using either white glue or just clear paint (Tamiya) to keep windows in. Clear paint seems to work pretty well as you don't need to be as selective of where it goes.
