Re: [BKARTS] Plexiglas and Adhesive

[Rodney Fry <mandrfry@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Bill,

In the UK this is known as "Perspex" and is a methyl methacrylate.
I use it for insulating radio frequency components such as coils.   I
take some filings or drill chips and dissolve them in chloroform -
obviously one should not breath too deeply, but do it where there is
ventilation! -  in a small screw top bottle until I have a solution that is
about the consistency of egg white.   This is then applied with a brush
or spatula, but it dries quickly as the solvent evaporates.

Hope that helps
