I’m currently trying to glue the rigging in place but even the super glue isn’t sticking so well to the paint. What’s the best way of glueing rigging or do I need to scrape the paint where I’m looking to glue?

How old is your superglue Carl? It can go off with age, becoming less effective..

Might be worth a try. Better than scraping down all that paint.

Another question to anyone that may have done this already. What’s the best way to attach rigging to the funnels. I suspect that if I try spotting super glue it will inevitably not stick every time so I’ll end up ruining the paint work if I’m not careful. I was thinking of drilling holes but even that would be awkward now they are glued in place. Any help appreciated.
