Hmm sealing thoughts . . . cracked vision 400

[reptileexperts]

Just looking for some input on sealing some cracks on a vision cage. I was made a deal on a new vision 400 but it apparently has been roughed up on the bottom edge, and has a crack running down it. Not a worry for housing a retic, but the urine is what worries me so I do need to seal it. Probably is, last time I used a latex seal, it simply seemed to absorb the urine, and that's not what I'm after. . . anyone have a specific suggestion to pick up to seal with?

Cheers

Have you used this with snakes? MSDS shows a health rating of 1 (same as water from a chemist standpoint). But is conflicting when mentioning vapor discussing "no vapor given state" and then "use in well ventilated room to prevent vapor" I realize that is boiler plate information, but still has me curious if its a legitimate MSDS . . . They have that locally in town, so I can grab some.

I'd use pvc glue on a crack in pvc as long as you can get the edges to match up. if not they make an epoxy for plastic that wouldn't absorb anything. last time I bought the epoxy I think it was around $5 at home depot.

I haven't used it around snakes, but growing up on my Uncle's farm, I used it on everything from tractor radiators to john boat leaks. It does off gas when it's curing, but it seems to be very neutral when fully dried. And this stuff is strong. In most applications, it becomes stronger than the item being repaired.
