Is the search for a poly glue over?

From 3M

Two-part epoxies have evolved over three dis-
Among the most recent advances in acrylic tech-
nology are 3M Scotch-Weld Structural Plastic Ad-
hesives DP-8005 and DP-8010. These readily bond
polypropylene, TPOs, and other difficult-to-bond
low surface energy plastics. They provide high
shear and peel strengths while reducing the
surface preparation time and cost of traditional adhesives.

Unfortunately it looks like the small quantity tubes from Granger etc require a $40 applicator.See:

But also checkout 3M(TM) Scotch-Grip(TM) Plastic Adhesive 4693,
It has immediate bond strength, long tack range and contact bond properties. It exhibits outstanding bond strength to metals and many plastics, including polypropylene, polyethylene and high-impact polystyrene. Good resistance to water and aging.


4693H is a thicker version available in tubes at:

I've ordered a tube and will post results later.[/i]

Sorry guys I had to cancel the order for the$14 tube.

Because I'm in Hawaii they wanted to stick me $70 for shipping hazard material via UPS 2nd day air.(no USPS)

Someone can probably get it for $8 freight UPS ground.
