I'm pretty sure you can find the super glue accelerant at your local hobby store.

As for water effects and water base I'm still figuring that out myself. There are plenty of tutorials in ship building forums but they look like a lot of work and complicated and expensive. I tried a few times with clear silicone caulk I bought at the hardware store, I did a few attempts with it and I say it is viable if you practice enough.   It dries a bit soft though but maybe a few heavy coats of clear should harden and give it shiny surface.    I also bought acrylic gel medium, it's a bit more expensive than caulk but it dries harder and has a gloss finish.   I haven’t successfully made a water base myself yet so I’m still learning this too. I've been practicing on some scrap cardboard, paint it blue, paint a wake wave and then apply the meduim or caulk and see how it turns out.

Also I got a mail package today, 1/700 Shimakaze, Yugumo, I-19 and... Aoshima's Amatsukaze,  my fleet grows :)
