I use Zap-A-Gap CA (CyanoAcrylate) glue for just about everything.

Last year I scratch-built a 25mm grav tank using two model kits (a car 
and a German Leopard tank), and a lot of plastic card for the chassis.
I found that the plastic used for overhead-projector slides (acetate?)
makes an excellent "hinge" between two pieces of plastic card, and
Zap-A-Gap will bond the acetate "hinge" to other plastics almost
instantly (and permanently!).
