Tips for Bonding Stone to the Point Pod Plastic Flange:

Surface Preparation:

Ensure both the stone and plastic flange surfaces are clean, dry, and free from any dust, grease, or dirt. 

Scratching the Plastic:

While not always necessary, lightly scratching the plastic surface can enhance the bond's strength by increasing the surface area. 

Two-Part Epoxy:

Two-part epoxies provide a stronger bond than single-part epoxies because they involve mixing a resin and a hardener, which creates a chemical reaction that results in a durable bond. 

Follow Instructions:

Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for mixing and applying the epoxy, as this will ensure a proper and strong bond.

Consider the Application:

If you need a quick-setting epoxy, look for products like Megapoxy PF Rapid Set Epoxy Adhesive, which is designed for emergency repairs and quick bonding.

Consider the environment:

If the bond will be exposed to water or extreme temperatures, choose an epoxy that is specifically designed for those conditions.
