[sbenzie]

Hello,

My farther is trying to repair some scratches and crack in perspex glass on a 1960's bubble car window.

He needs to find an adhesive and filler that can be used on this material that will provide material compatibility, strength, optical clarity and will not tarnish over time.

Any advise on what to use would be most appricated - Epoxies, Superglue ???

Appricated,
Scott

Take a look at these two sites. I would give them both a call.

Don't use epoxies or superglue -- use acrylic cement. It's a solvent containing some dissolved acrylic (PMMA) dissolved for body. Dries clear in joints.
The stuff unclesyd mentioned looks good for handling scratches & restoring shine.
