What would be the best way to stick 2 sheets of acrylic?
I think that if I use some kind of glue, there may be a mark which can be seen if the acrylic sheets are transparent, unless if the glue has the same refraction index as the acrylic. Is this correct?
Oooh, I was looking this up a few years ago for a project idea which I then abandoned. Let me see if I can find what I found then and put my old search to good use…
Use a 2 part Tensol , it fills gaps and creates a totally clear bond of high strength , its meant for joining acrylics. You must check whether its cast or extruded acrylic as you would need different for extruded. The secret to getting a totally transparent joint is to use a glue with a refractive index near to acrylic that fills all gaps , thin solvents wont do this and their bond strength is not good at all
I think that Tensol 70 is the glue he referred to, and I see Stykra A2000 advertised as a direct replacement.
No direct experience, just memories of looking for this half a decade or so ago.
It seems I can’t find any of the references you suggest. What do you thinkabout this one ?
It says:
[Characteristics] - It is a transparent glue that is odorless, non-corrosive, not white, not brittle, not yellow, not hardened.
[Type of bonding material] - Ceramic, glass, leather, plastics, electronic components, metals, stone, rubber, wood, acrylic, etc.
