Glues for Mylar?
Hello All,
What (if any) glue or glues is/are effective for gluing polyurethane resin parts to Mylar--in particular, gluing polyurethane resin parts into Mylar-lined paper launch lugs? G. Harry Stine's "Handbook of Model Rocketry" says that contact cements will bond anything to anything else, but it wouldn't be practical in this case for mechanical reasons. His book also says that Epoxy will bond anything (except Teflon and some kinds of PVC plastic), and that cyanoacrylate (CA) will bond anything. Mylar seems pretty "slick," though, like Delrin and polyethylene plastics.
Many thanks in advance to anyone who can help!
