It seems that Tenax-7R liquid cement has been discontinued.
This from a few forums, such as:
http://www.network54.com/Forum/526495/thread/1249575947/Tenax-7+Discontinued+due+to+new+US+EPA+regulations
Just got of the phone with my whole sale distributor in TX.
This product is in a long list of recently discontinued items due to new US EPA environmental regulations just passed by the Democrat controlled US Congress. After reading a release of the new legislation it states "any product containing Flourocarbons must be discontinued".
Better find any Tenax-7 locally and stock up on it. MEK can also be used but that will probably be on the discontinued list as well.
I wonder if Tamiya liquid cement will also be discontinued in the US.
My many thanks go to Hope N Change for further screwing up my otherwise happy life.
Next up will be resin and paints.
Time to take up Fly Fishing.

Personally, I love the stuff... one of the quickest and "hottest" liquid cements around (though it does evaporate very quickly if the cap is not tight on the bottle).
I am going to stock up while supplies last.

I saw that.
I just got 2 bottles of the generic stuff from Micro Mark.
You can always just get Weld-on #3
It's the industrial version.
Used to use it at the aquarium making shop I worked at.
works on styrene, abs, acrylic and I think lexan.

MEK will probably be here to stay, I think, there's nothing else like it and it's widely used in industry. Oh, wait, that's sense talking. It's sure to be scrapped, and some water-based stuff substituted...
