The key word here is bond, and not glue. melting the plastic and let them bond is safe from glue being aged or an chemical reaction when u apply paint. Model is not really a toy. when u r constructing a kit, u dont play with it instanstly. if u use cement the correct way, the bonding is much stronger than using super glue.

Unfortunately there is no such product. Gloss is all about skill and techique and patience. Is a combination of various steps, products, and techniques.

Industrial spray cans however also will be thicker than the tamiya/Mr.hobby spray cans....
to avoid thickness, depends how u spray, wat kind of brand u use....
i spray at least 10-15 cm away and left right like devil_x said...
do not focus on one spot , thus it will not create a thick layer...
