acrylic cement
Most of you are probably familiar with acrylic cement. I used it for the first
time recently, and thought it would be good to share my experiences with those who aren't familiar with it. The spindle on my record-cleaning machine had broken off, and the repair kit included a tube of Weldon #16 acrylic cement. After drilling out the hole, I globbed the cement on the new spindle and stuck it in place. It stuck very well. I have a box set of Sinatra recordings with a thick Plexiglas cover. It had been broken, and the acrylic cement fixed it nicely with no trouble. Which is no surprise, as Plexiglas is an acrylic. What did surprise me was the battery cover on a Sony remote control. It had been split straight down the middle (vertically). As the cover is only 1/32" thick, I expected problems, and wasn't looking forward to fiddling with epoxy or Plas-T-Pair. Much to my surprise, the acrylic glue worked. |
