Hi guys I'm looking at glueing some hdpe, can it be done with an epoxy resin and if so any recommendations thanks in advance
 
HDPE was always welded using heat so the two parts were effectively melted together. Now there are epoxy resins that can do it, as you suggest. The preparation is really important. What are you joining the HDPE to?

Strong glue for plastic

What type of shower tray
Hi all. Sometime ago I removed our old 1200x800 shower tray and replaced with a Stone resin one. The stone resin tray was much, much heavier than the old one. At the time I didn't give much thought to it, but now I'm wondering which type of tray it would have been. Other than it weighed no more...
