Adhesive for Lexan picture disk sandwich
Hey all.
Does anyone know a good adhesive for making picture disk sandwiches? I'm using .020 lexan and printing the images on cardstock, I have tried so many glues, but nothing makes a perfect transparent seal without bubbling, wrinkling, yellowing, etc.
thanks!

The link below shows the MyShank laminator used for making picture disks. I would love to know what materials (pockets?) are used with these kits.

Would you be willing to share your methods @myshank?
Many would be grateful I'm sure seems like a very elegant solution.

I use Loctite spray adhesive. It does dry a little cloudy but bonds to non-permiable surfaces. You do need to be careful to keep the tip fresh or else it will come out more as blobs and less as a mist. If it's applied evenly it can look pretty sharp.

3M Super 77 works well for me... Available at Office Max for $16 a can... but like Graham said, you have to keep the nozzle clean when you are done by turning it upside down and spraying it until nothing comes out.
