After that I like to take a black sharpie marker and go over everything I just sanded (the edges). Finally get a couple of q-tips to apply the glue. I've done a ton of Touring Car kits and nothing works better than super thin finger nail glue from your local CVS or Wallgreen's. All tire CA type glues are thicker than nail glue. The one I use is called Jet Dry. 2 bottles to a pack for like $3. Wet the q-tip with glue and make smooth strokes abound the edges. When the q-tip starts to smoke from the fast drying activators, throw it away and start with a new q-tip. If you use the sharpie before glueing it leaves a nice shiny black "piano" Finnish.
