Attaching 2 Plastic Sheets

Attach the plastic along the ceiling by pressing thumbtacks through it and into the ceiling at the rate of one every foot or so.

Attaching 2 plastic sheets.

Attaching the second sheet step 1. If the actual composition of the plastic is unknown an epoxy is the best choice as it will survive longer than the plastic sheets themselves. Then immediately apply pressure to fuse them together allow to cool down if too hot. Repeat sections 1 and 2 for as many sheets as necessary.

I hope this clarifies my question. Plastic sheeting is notoriously hard to join tape is messy and glue won t stick. I went to a craft store and purchased a yard of plastic in the fabric dept. When you finish remove the thumbtacks and fill in the holes with tiny dots of putty that match the ceiling color.

I am making a craft project. Rob shows a clip of plastic laminating where heat fuses plastic to paper. Step 1 clean the two pieces of plastic to be epoxied together. There are several ways to safely seal plastic sheets so nothing can seep through the seams but duct tape is a simple practical and inexpensive way to seal two or more plastic sheets for your home project.

Using the low setting on my heat gun gently heat up the two sheets till they get tacky. For lightweight plastic you may be able to use fewer tacks. I need a glue that will hold water inside. Then apply heat again.

I then put water inside and a few hrs later noticed it was soaking through the plastic and leaking.
