Hi, New to the forum here. What are the recommended adhesives to use to bond Alumilite Clear to itself and non like substances like wood. Do cyno glues or epoxys work.
Thanks for any info you having on bonding Alumilite

Proper surface preparation is important any time an Epoxy or Polyurethane needs to be bonded to another surface. Glossy or oily surfaces will reduce the bond strength or prevent bonding altogether. To help the bond, clean the surface well with warm water with some Dawn dish washing liquid works well. In addition cleaning the surface with Isopropyl alcohol.
A light sand abrading the surface will give some bite for the glue to bond the two pieces together.
Hope this helps intolight and have a great day.
