    Hey everyone!
    Was curious if anyone knows who stocks Weldon 16 or similar plastic/acrylic weld locally here in cedar rapids??
    I hate waiting a week on shipping so figured I'd check here to see if anyone knows where I could pick some up.
    Thanks!

    I couldn't find any in the Des Moines area. I went to Menards, Home Depot, Lowes Ace etc. I ended finding a small bottle of acrylic solvent at Hobby Haven. I can't remember the name of it.

    Not sure what they have for hobby stores in CR but you might give that a shot. I know the Bulk Reef Supply has it if you want to go the online route.

    Call cope plastics in Hiawatha. They may have it. If they do they will have you purchase it through someone with an account. If you don't like their price try the plastic place in Monticello. You'll have to yellow book it.

    As an extra note: Cope plastics is a whole seller and only allows contractors or retailers to open accounts. They deal with a lot of acrylics and will probably refer you to a glass company In town.

    I've been searching for IPS Weldon 3 for the same purpose (joining acrylic to acrylic), if they have Weldon 3 or if somebody has some to get rid of / finds a place that has it in stock could you please contact me. (View my profile)


    Thanks


    For acrylics: Weldon 3 is for speed vs. Weldon 4 for the same purpose, slower bond time.

    Thanks for the replies!
    Guess ill have to go the eBay or brs route, called around and can't find anything local in small quantity, just looking for some for a small project so a tube or 16oz can would be all that I need, alltho if I had a gallon I could come up with somethin to create lol :)
    Thanks again for those that gave input!

    And, if anybody else knows or comes across a spot that has it locally, post it up for everybody for future reference, I'm sure there may be places I didn't think of
    Thanks
