Default making wires on circuit board immobile but able to be removedlater?

I am in the process of modifying a circuit by adding a small external

wires to move around when I'm done, but yet if I ever need to make
repairs, I want to be able to remove them.Â* I see some people using hot
glue for such matters, but I don't think I'd be able to desolder the
wires later without using a lot of force to remove the hot glue first.
What could I use?


Cyanoacrylate with accelerator. It sets fast, cracks off really easily
and can be cleaned up with acetone.
