Fixing foam sheeted parts

You can heat up polyurethane glue and it will run right into the crack.
Just tape it closed while it cures.  Oh yeah, the glue will begin curing
very soon after you heat it up.  

My technique is to put a bead of poly-u right on the crack, warm with a heat
gun, open up the crack to let the glue run in, then tape closed.

 You can use aliphatic glue(similar to white glue).Works good on balsa and
foam and won't attack the foam.
