Many model kits, whether they be of buildings, coaches, aeroplanes or any other type of vehicle, will likely have glazing to attach at some point during the build. Your choice of glue when installing the glazing is an important one because many types of glue can cause plastic glazing to go opaque or misty after time.
This is caused by the fumes that many types of glue emit, especially cyanoacrylate adhesive (Super Glue). One possible solution to the problem is to use an odourless glue such as Deluxe Materials's Cyano Odourless or their Glue 'N' Glaze.
Both of these glues have the bonding power of a traditional cyanoacrylate adhesive, but without the potential to cloud glazing or annoy our delicate noses. So it really is a win-win.
