RE: Polycarbonate Glue



Gary:

Might you have HDPE?  I found with HDPE you can use heat in the form of a
soldering gun to fuse it - no glue will touch HDPE.  It doesn't end up
pretty, but a reasonable joint can be obtained.

I am working on a TC project.  I cut some plastic pieces but can't find
anything that will glue them together.  This plastic must be polycarbonate.
Acetone has no effect on it.  PVC glue does nothing to it and peals off like
a sheet of paper when its dry.  Tried epoxy, polyester, super glue, bondo,
model car glue, Methyl Ethyl Ketone Peroxide, acetone and none of them work.
Any suggestion?
