What type of glue do you use to glue plexi to your case door?
Thanks

I know that it is not glue but I use double-sided tape.

You could use an epoxy, but it will be messy, and not the most secure, or easy to remove if neccesary.

Most people use the 2 sided tape mentioned above, available at hardware stores, Home Depot, etc..

Or you can use nuts and bolts to secure them, I like using allen head bolts for that "Finished" look.

You could use contact cement but better have it right.. Onece the 2 sides of the cement meet it is fused and can not be moved..

Tape (duct), super glue and hot glue. All 3 together woek lilke a charm. Not the prettyest window but it works

I'd use silicon caulk if I wanted to attach a window...or double-sided tape works well too.

I use caulking for about everything. IMHO caulking is the duct tape of computer modding. I'd use duct tape for my computer if I could find a valid use for it though.....

Happy Camper, you are the only other person I've seen mention using caulking on PR other than me.. good job.

Get Clear Window and Door Silicone Sealant II

Link

Edit: Link is acting weird from there just goto "Caulks & Adhesives" -> "Silicone Sealants" -> GE
10.1 oz. Clear Silicone Window and Door Caulk

GE's Bathroom and Kitchen has worked well for me. No use changin' if it works well and I have 2.5 tubes left from doin' my bathroom last year.

davidkruta · 26-March-04, 10:52 PM

well ive only cut one window (as of yet, soon to be about 4 lol) and i used silicone caulk. definitely worked great. i personally wouldnt go with double sided tape cuz its not as secure and permanent.

Do you use white or clear caulk for your bathroom? Cuz clear would be best for a window

Also if I remember right that Bathroom and Kitchen one is rated to work best with sinks and bathtubs ie porcelain material. The Window and Door is rated highest for acrylics, plastics, metals.
