Hi everyone, I'm sure these topics have been discussed a few times over, but I can't seem to find the right info.
I bought a sheet of 3 mm white Sintra at a surplus shop (PVC sign board as they labeled it). The guy behind the counter called it "Plexiglas" :confused(I don't know where that came from, I know what Sintra looks like).
Anyway the Sintra has a slight pitted texture in it - - I tried and this texture can be lightly sanded out (or should I leave it?). I plan to use this material for the chest, shoulders, back, rear and cod plates using the WOF templates.
I've been using styrene for my jet pack, so I tested some plastic cement on the Sintra. It didn't hold.
My question is what kind of glue does everyone use to secure the pieces of plastic that will hold the "snaps" to the back of the Sintra armor? I was thinking PVC plumping glue.
Also can Sintra be used to make sturdy WOF knee armor - - What glue (if any) will securely hold the three major "knee cap" pieces together.
I hope someone out there can give me a little advice.
Thanks gang.
