I have never heard of the foam glue before. I have had great results with a waterproof PVA (think it has a rubber in it). Sets off really hard but gives you time to move things into place.
Very good informative video. I use PVA on my first layout but changed to copydex and but only use that on the base (i use cork) and I have started to screw the tracks in place as I find they stay fixed and resist expansion better (and its less messy). I did like the section on the power base and should have used that on my incline but I'm getting results with out it so will leave well alone. I have subbed to your channel and look forward to the progress. Regards Steve
Thank you for your wonderful comment Steve. I have pinned and screwed track in the past but I am fortunate that the temperature in the layout room is pretty constant throughout the year. I once laid some track on a loft layout in the middle of winter, come a summer heatwave I got a little worried, so I can understand why you might want to screw track. Re your layout if it isn't broke don't fix it. Once again thanks for watching, TUN.

The foam tack glue is really good but I suspect that it costs more than the PVA, so if that works for you I would stick with it. TUN.
Beware, superglue will eat expanded polystyrene. Stick to PVA :)
I've made this mistake before many years ago, also the same thing with plastic glue.
