I have ordered Weld-On through the mail/web once, but I usually get it locally.

Start with the source, contact IPS themselves, and find out who they sell to locally. This could be a great way to find local acrylic sources, too.

I'm a mail order kinda guy - I live in the sticks where it's 1.5 hours to the nearest city that might have some of this stuff....

In that vain, I wanted to share a good source for those looking to order it like I did.

They have everything for your acylic needs. I just got the weld-on, sandpapers, drill bits, polishing supplies, buffers, compound, etc. etc.

Thought I'd share for those like me in the boondocks!

Some more sources for Weld-on. #40 is harder to find then #4, by the way.

These places all carry both #4 and #40.

If you buy from craftics, I noticed they sell a funnel, which comes in handy for pouring solvent into your applicator bottle.
