Default Un cured epoxy in Starfire

I received a Nitroplanes Starfire ARF in Mid October. This kit was factory assembled with soft un-cured "adhesive" attaching the bulkheads to the fuselage. With little or on effort I could scrape the glue off with a fingernail. Not one bulkhead but at least three when I stopped counting. I emailed Nitroplanes support to return the plane. Your response was "it's recommended to use YOUR OWN EPOXY". I saved the email if you want to see it. I am supposed to go back over your work and put new epoxy over soft, what ever it is that is already there? That is some kind of guarantee of satisfaction. This plane is unusable if for no other reason than the amount of epoxy required to "cover up" the bad work would result in a brick. What's the deal here?
