Ever use DAP woodweld plastic resin?

Hey guys!
Has anyone had any experience using DAP woodweld on a fiberglass backed bow? I've read some things about it being similar to Urac but I don't have much experience making bows, and want to keep BOTH of my eyes when i'm done.
Thanks, Tim

I've used it with wood/wood glue ups with very good results. Read the directions to see if it is compatible with fiberglass.

I think it is just as good as Unibond, cheaper, and easier to find. It is only for wood to wood just like unibond.

Do you have to use Saran wrap to protect forms and such.. ? Is it as Toxic as Epoxy glues like Smooth On..?

Yes, I always wrap my form, it is water clean up, but like all epoxies where gloves.

Weldwood plastic resin is mixed with water. It is a fine dust so I imagine you should protect yourself from that but there are no vapors, etc to worry about.
