A: How to glue polyethylene or polypropylene

Plastic eyeglass frames are not typically made from this type of plastic. Try a good quality cyanoacrylate (crazy glue). I like Loctite 401 but there are lot of good ones out there.

For eyeclass frames I used to use Ambroid cement but thenew UV Cure
resin like the stuff from Kafuter works pretty good too. It leaves a
little lump, but it is crystal clear, so doesn't show up very much.

I've used heat welding with 4 mil polyethylene sheets. Every year after, I
bought the right size liner and didn't have to mess with it.

Asphalt roof sealer (a couple different types work) will hold PE to PE good
enough to make ice rink liner patches and repairs possible. It doesn't
really glue things together, it's more like bonded with bubble gum.
Acoustical sealant, which seems to only be sold in Canada, works well too
(so they tell me).

This is experience from ice rink building, where we have 4 things going
against us regarding liner patches: Ice, freezing cold water, being under
water, and polyethylene liners.
