Vertex Alpha 250 collection cup

BHHOWARD · 07/10/2011, 10:38 PM

The clear outer-portion of the collection cup detached from the white base. What cement should I use to connect it back together? Weld-on 40?

Thanks,
Brian

I would use Weld-on 16 or pvc cement.

Acrylics (James) thought WELD-ON 16 would work, but that WELD-ON 40 would be the best solution:

Weld-on 40 would work great. James is the go to guy when it comes to acrylic. Another great option would be Weld-on #4052.
