I use Ambroids and when that runs out I have a bottle of Tenax and a capillary glue pen waiting on me.... since I started using Ambroids I couldnt go back.. (still use MM liquid cement in the little dispenser with the metal applicator for cockpit areas etc...) but for fuselage, winges and parts with long seams it's only the welding agents for me!
they have the consistency of water, weld the piece together in like 10 seconds (as in stuck together, not waiting to dry and still can move a little bit) and you can do a small portion of seam at a time so you get a better fit when done!
At like 3 dollars for the bottle at Hobby Lobby (Ambroids) it's worth a try! but as far as the liquid cement versus tube ... try the liquid too... it's a lot friendlier...
