Default Superglue for plastic?

Is there a specific kind made for RCs? Can anyone suggest a product? I'm just using cheap super glue now for small repairs on plastic, it seems to work decent. Is the stuff made just for RCs a lot better?

Since plastic isn't porous and the CA won't soak in get the thick kind and also pickup a bottle of CA Kicker, the kicker will rapidly cure the CA once it's sprayed on. Thick CA will fill gaps and create a fillet around any broken parts. Buy quality CA that is not old, as CA ages it looses it's holding power and takes even longer to cure. Jet is also a good brand.
