Subject: [sccpartners] Chip in
Corian
Hi everyone.
Now that I am a master of the Universe, since my last email, on buffing and
sanding corian (have been diligently experimenting with scotch brite pads,
sanding discs, marble honing powders and rubbing compound), I now have a crack
and chip situation. The chip is on the underside of the edge (see picture
below). The crack is on the top and is just a split. I have been
researching and what I have come up with is 1. Dupont telling me that
they will not sell me the glue unless I am a certified Corian fabricator, 2.
There is a guy in New York at Art Specialties that might sell me some glue (I
pried that out of the the Dupont person) but it only comes in 4 colors and is
not appropriate for filling chips (so they say), There is a website -
Solidsurface.com - that will sell glues, but there is little explanation on the
site as to the consistency of the glue (appears to be an epoxy made by either
integra or plexus). Also, i think that filling a surface crack is
probably not a big deal, but a chip on the underside of the lip is a little
different as the glue will not hold in place to fill the chip and is not knife
grade. Best bet, I would think, would be to saw out the chipped piece and
glue in a section of similar color, but then the color matching might get tricky.
Otherwise, perhaps mold a piece and glue in place somehow. Any
Ideas? I may have to punt to a corian fabricator, but it seems like the
kind of thing that would be worthwhile pursuing.
