ya exactly the same thing as weld on 3 but not a brand name.. weldon 4 is the same with a tiny thickening agent.

the only reason they shop doesent use weldon 3 is they buy the raw chemical in bulk for a lot cheaper.

Hello,

It is possible, as mentioned, to laminate. However, I do not think it is worthwhile to do so for the average person or even professional fabricators in terms of time, effort, and cost. From what I know, it is only done in commercial settings. But hey if you can do it, good for you!

Titus

Titus, he got the plastic for free, the 5 bucks for the weldon 4 makes it worth it
