Attaching 2 Plastic Sheets

Plastic sheeting is notoriously hard to join tape is messy and glue won t stick.

Attaching 2 plastic sheets.

When you finish remove the thumbtacks and fill in the holes with tiny dots of putty that match the ceiling color. 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. Step 1 clean the two pieces of plastic to be epoxied together. I need a glue that will hold water inside.

Repeat sections 1 and 2 for as many sheets as necessary. To join two plastic sheets the sheets can either be glued preferably with a good epoxy or fused together. For lightweight plastic you may be able to use fewer tacks. I then put water inside and a few hrs later noticed it was soaking through the plastic and leaking.

I went to a craft store and purchased a yard of plastic in the fabric dept. I am making a craft project. Rob shows a clip of plastic laminating where heat fuses plastic to paper. Then immediately apply pressure to fuse them together allow to cool down if too hot.

Attaching the second sheet step 1. I hope this clarifies my question. Attach the plastic along the ceiling by pressing thumbtacks through it and into the ceiling at the rate of one every foot or so. Covering objects step 1 repeat steps 2.

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.
