Hi Spiro,
The best thing to do is go to the web site where I first learned about Plastic Surgery. It's called Glue Of The Month and you can find it at: http://www.thistothat.com/gom/current.shtml Let me know if you need anymore information. Take care, Ed Przybylek From: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com [mailto:blindhandy...@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Spiro Sent: Wednesday, September 09, 2009 11:19 AM To: blindhandyman@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [BlindHandyMan] Gluing Nylon - Final Comments sounds like great stuff. Thanks for this. Is it specific to vinyl, or a small group of materials? I ask as nothing else seemed to do the trick in your examinations. Is the standard Acetone the solvent for this, or is there a specific Brand named solution? Also, what are the steps of use? Is it a 2 part? Is it a "part cure" as some, beofore placing the parts together? Thanks On Tue, 8 Sep 2009, Edward Przybylek wrote: > Hi all, > > > > I finally found a glue that does a good job gluing solid nylon.
