Hi Tom,
I'm in Australia too & am building a frame that I'll be skinning soon. Would you mind emailing me a copy of that list of builders too ?
Regards,
Phil.
: Hi Darren,
: I've sent you an email list of builders in AU and NZ who have made PVC skins
: using various glues. Bostik comes to mind, but there are many types of Bostik
: cements for various applications. Contact these builders directly for their
: input.
: You need to find a PVC /Vinyl truck tarp or upholstery specific cement
: that allows pre-coating and drying of the sections to be glued, before
: overlaying / positioning the 2 PVC sections together. After positioning
: and taping in place, you can then reactivate the cement with a heatgun to
: complete the bond.
: If the vinyl cement you choose does not have this property, then you will be
: be essentially using a vinyl contact cement, and that will likely create a
: huge mess when trying to glue two long seams together.
: Regards, Tom
