Which glue is good for transparent ABS plastic and easy removal?

Question

Hello all I need to glue some ABS plastic parts together some of them are transparent.

I used AA glue before but it will make my transparent parts foggy and after sticking them together its nearly impossible to disassembly.

So is there a better option than the AA 502 glue for easier removal and not fog my transparent parts? Thank you

"good" and "easy removal" are likely to be mutually exclusive... — Solar Mike, Mar 11 '19 at 13:01
You might try clear silicone RTV. Can get it at any hardware store. — Eric S, Mar 12 '19 at 01:51

You can try ARclear optically transparent adhesives made by Adhesives Research Inc No guarantees though, you will have to experiment to get what you want, of course. :-)

I can't say this will work for sure, but you should try clear silicone RTV. There are any number of companies that make the stuff, like this for example. Silicone RTV is rubber like and fairly think viscosity. As caulking, it is possible to peel off once cured. You should be able to buy clear silicone RTV at any hardware or home improvement store.
