Gluing plastic to wood
Posted by IBuild148 on Thursday, October 25, 2012 9:45 PM

I have a Mini Art plastic base that I want to glue/bond to a 1/4" piece of plywood.
I have sanded both but I would like to know what bonding agent would be best to ensure adhesion and that the wood will not warp?
Thanks.

I've used expoxy with wood and plastic and it works fine.

Also you could use contact cement or pressure sensitive adhesive, available at any hardware store.
