Joining Styrene to Acyrlic

[Guest]

I've never been keen on joining two dissimilar plastics but I haven't been able to find Acrylic in the thickness I require so had to settle for some styrene.

What's the best adhesive for joining Styrene to Acrylic, a lot of products are available which will join styrene or acrylic to themselves but not one to another?

Alan,odourless good quality cyno is the best fix,supported with a suitable kicker for that brand,as usual sand the mating surfaces first to enable a good key,and do not handle the edges once cleaned.

Go for the purest industrial grade cyno ( available on E-bay by a specialist adhesive company ) forget the stuff sold in model shops,it generally is very poor quality and made for the general marketplace.
