[super7]

wondering on where I can find the stuff to attach acrylic to acrylic for baffles in a sump, refuge, etc.
Thanks Super7

if your cuts are precise and clean, methyl chloride will work well.
If not so clean and uneven, weldon 16 is probably the better choice.

Try Industrial Plastics & Paints.

For Baffles many people use silicone to attach them. For a permanent installation I would follow Chin's advice. You can get the 2 products that Chin suggested at

Weld On #16 has good gap filling qualities so if your cuts are a bit loose it will work fine. For a good solid joint use #3 (dries very fast) or #4 (bit more open time). Your joints have to be tight with these two as they have the consistency of water.
Weld On is the only stuff I use and I've built a good number of sumps.

Yuppers Weld on #16,3,4 is the only stuff that i have used, and you can get it from any Glass company, where they build acrylic stuff along with glass,...
