Re: Define Polycarbonate glue...

By the definition,
http://www.amazon.com/Weldon-16%C3%A...6515284&sr=8-7

on amazon would work ... there are several glues in the paint section at the local Home Depot that say Acrylic, and I am going to go back and check, but I suspect that somewhere in the description of the Acrylic glues they also say also polycarbonate.
So...
"WELD-ON 16 is especially formulated to bond acrylic plastic. It can also be used for bonding styrene,
butyrate, PVC and polycarbonate, as well as other plastics and porous surfaces."

Does that description of WELD-ON 16 qualify it as a FIRST sanctioned "polycarbonate glue"?

If so, does Gorilla Super Glue qualify as a PVC cement <R92-R> because it specifically markets that it bonds PVC sheet?
"Bonds wood, metal, stone, ceramics, PVC sheet, brick, paper, rubber and some plastics"

Or do we have to replace Gorilla Super Glue with WELD-ON 16 and hope it works?
