Yes, if they are acrylic, the process would be essentially the same. If you are joining two curved areas with very little surface contact, use a thickened cement such as Weld-On #16 Adhesive, available at our website.

Do you use this same process if you are gluing two round tubes together?

See the comment above about MAPP gas.

The applicator shown in the video uses a 23 gauge needle which has an inside diameter of .0125". If you order it on our website, it is the small BD 25/2 applicator.

The gas demonstrated in the video is MAPP gas. MAPP stands for methylacetylene propadiene. It burns hotter than propane, so is better for flame polishing. Most hardware stores carry it right next to their propane bottles.

What gas do you use for flame polish? What's "map" or "mat" gas you mention? Thanks.

Is needle thickness important? What is the gauge or diameter of your needles?

What kind of flame should be used for polishing? I thik I've only seen propane at Home Depot. |
