Thanks for the feedback Chris. I found that I need to work fast with the Pacer glue, because it sets pretty quick. I get all the hinges ready, fill the slots with glue, wipe off the excess and put in the hinges.

Before installing them, I wash the nylon hinges in 99% alcohol to get any mold release agent off, dry them well, then put a little (very little) light oil at the joint. I have a little bottle of light model railroad oil with a needle applicator. It works great for wicking a tiny bit of oil into the hinge joint without getting any on the surface of the hinge. I've got it down to a science after trying different ways.
