|  Glueing to painted lexan?
This question just occurred to me today after trying to find out a new way to mount my body. I've heard of many, many people using shoe goo on lexan with great success. My question for you guys is, when using glue on your lexan bodies how do you keep whatever your glueing from pulling up the lexan paint. If you sanded the paint down you would be able to see it from the outside. So what do you guys do?

Ive used a hotglue gun with great success when installing lights onto lexan. It bonds well to the paint and has a flex to it to keep it from coming loose

it was pretty tough to pull it apart but it did not pull the paint with it. if you've ever tried to remove paint from the inside of a body. that was painted right, you know how well it sticks. of course when you want it to stick it will probably pull | |

If you've used lexan paint and prepped properly, it will not come off. I've used shoo goo, hot glue, and epoxy on the insides of lexan bodies and never had any issues with lifting paint.
