Adhesive for Acrylic

[fishhook]

What is a good adhesive for acrylic, I will be joining 1/4 acrylic sheeting. Also, where is a good place to purchase this adhesive. I will need a good
strong bond on the joints.
Thanks.

fish, I would suggest using a product called weldon. its the prefered bonding agent for joining acrylic. It can be picked up at numerous places around town ....namely Calsik plastics in norcross..I would look for weldon 3-4 or for thicker bonds use weldon 16.

I recommend #16 for novices. #4 for experienced acrylic workers.

16 is a gel and is more forgiving than 4, which is very non-viscous, but will give a cleaner look if you have very precise cuts.
