Default EPP foam/styrene glue?

Hello All,

I am seeking a glue recommendation:

This week I received an R/C ARF (Almost Ready-To-Fly) C-17 model that I'd ordered (see: http://www.ebay.com/itm/C-17-Transp...AAOSwMQBZ6cK O ), whose parcel was gouged in transit. The model itself was undamaged, but the tube of glue that was supposed to be in the model's box fell out somewhere along the route (it was a one-part glue [not an epoxy], as the instructions show). The model is made of EPP (Expanded Poly-Propylene) foam (the airframe parts), with styrene detail parts, all of which are glued together with EPP foam/EPP foam and EPP foam/styrene glue joints. Also:

What replacement glue would you all recommend for this application? Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
