Your article 'Working with Acrylic' was very helpful. I recently removed my bottom piece of tempered glass on my tank to replace it with acrylic so that I can drill holes. I posted some messages regarding this and received some negative feedback. Most of the responses concluded that I will not get a 'good' bond between the acrylic to glass. I found it very hard to believe that (in this day and age) we can not manufacture something that will allow for this.
In your article, you mentioned that Oceanic uses GE Contractors Silicone SCS 1200 to bond acrylic to glass. If this is real and I imagine that they have no problems, then it can be done. Also, is this the only reliable/proven product out there?
I appreciate your response. Thanks!
