I am making my own custom reservoir out of an old plastic CDR disc set lid and plexi glass. I was wondering what adhesive/glue I should use to attach the plexi and plastic case. Would RTV suffice?

This is cut from the Tips, Tricks, and Tutorials section:


Fixing to other plastics - if you are trying to stick some plex togeather to create a complex shape you will need something to glue it togeather properly. forget crazy glue guys. here is what you want to use. IPS Weld ON #4. there is also an IPS Weld ON #3 and it is fast drying. probably best to take the longer drying kind though. most likely it does a better job.

Would I be able to get it at a local place?

I believe so, an auto parts shop like O'Reilly's should carry it. Or better still a hardware store.
