Not really a glue at all .Â* That's why it was called cement.

It dissolved the pieces so that when they 'hardened' the pieces were
as one ie as strong as the pieces next to them


In that case just use the solvent weld adhesive intended for
plastic plumbing ?


Probably work at joining two pieces But not really precise enough
application .

Even the tube cements of the 70s 80s (even available now) are a bit
imprecise better with the More liquid small applicator type .
Say Tamiya thin or even Revell Contacta
