Gorilla Glue is polyurethane I
think. I mean the thick viscosity type of
cyanoacrylate glue you can buy for instance in hobby shops, like this
stuff:

It doesn't really matter which brand, what you want is cyanoacrylate and
not the runny kind. Any decent shop selling models should have it, or a
Games Workshop store (I think it is the preferred glue for building
Warhammer figures).

Actually, super glue does gap fill. Use the thick stuff and sprinkle
baking soda

on the glue after applying. It will set rock hard
instantly.
The plastic model crowd use this for gap filling instead of putty
sometimes.
That the stuff they call Gorilla Glue or is that something else?
