I NEED WELD #3

Yeah, I actually broke mine off about two weeks ago. The temperature changes from inside to outside did it's deed.

I still think a good job of welding it will get through any heavy session.

Novastar, You ever done touch-ups between? Or is it simply tape it and worry about it when it comes off. I'm thinking of just going back over the seam every month or so.

Great Idea to keep it on, unfortunatly haven't had a lot of time for serious dueling but I still have a question on where to find Weld On #3 since I live in Ca and it is a restricted item to ship here or is there a substitute?

it says here that you can use weld on 4 as a substitute. Ultra recommended another glue but it escapes me right now

There are lots of different Weld-on types...

Perhaps a type of modeling glue? I don't know if that would craze the PolyC like Superglue, but that would probably be easy to find.

did you guys know that in the pvc section of home depot they sell weld on products. i was there the other day. unfortunately they do not sell weld on 3.

Yeah, we talked about this before.

I use that weld on for some PVC stuff never tried it for PolyC but it should at least do somewhat well.

Like I have said plenty 3M plastic adhesive is my friend for the purpose and it works VERY well.

Yes I did but, I tried this a long time ago to find out it is the wrong Weld-On. Thanks for the Information.

Does anyone here use cyanoacrylate?
I use it and it's all good; fast, simple and comes in small packages...

Unless you are great with applying it I would STRONGLY discourage that. If you drip it and apply to much it can craze (fog) the PolyC.

Some of the kids in my school gamble with it, but one mess up and you've borked it. It's better to deal with holding it for a minute more than instant gratification.
