Metal prints are starting to arrive at our shop. I have seen some metal prints with Neilson frames used as strainers. Now, if I could figure out the correct way to permanently bond the print to the strainer ...

Anybody doing this already? What adhesive have you used? Do you need to place a weight over the strainer to get a good bond? Will the bond hold up in 100 degree heat (Las Vegas)?

Tried any of these: Momentive RTV 102 or RTV 108 adhesives?

This is new territory for us, and so I will start with fellow Grumbler advice.

I'm not sure whether I understand the problem correctly. If the metal print is firm, maybe you could try dual lock (kind of velcro but with heavy duty adhesive and grip)

I guess if holds the Guinness World Records-setting feat, lifting an 8.1 metric ton (17,857 pound, 2990 PSI) forklift in the air for one hour, then it should hold a metal print. To be clear, this was a similar product, 3M Scotch-Weld Plastic & Rubber Instant Adhesive PR100, not the DP810. However, both have similar data sheets and are acrylic adhesives.

Thanks for the info.
