Does anyone know of any good glues for bonding ziplock plastic to itself, latex (like power-free gloves) to itself, and/or ziplock plastic to latex?

I know it is stupid, I should just buy a good high-quality weather proof bag but I am currently seeking information for making my own. Mostly curiosity.

Thanks again guys! :)

You'll need something that will bond but not eat away at the plastic.

Epoxy might work but it may eventually eat away at the plastic.

I don't no where you live , but in most metro areas there's a retailer that sell plastics.
My suggestion would be to check with them about what you have in mind and they should happy to suggest what materials you might need.

Saran Wrap or other plastic wrap ALWAYS seems to stick to itself and not the dish you are trying to cover.

Why not buy a yard of water proof nylon (there is water risistant and water proof) like they make dry bags out of make your own camera/lens sheild? A number of the rain sheilds are made of this. Seattle Fabric is one place to buy the material (and a whole lot more types of neat material). I bought some a while back with the idea of doing this. But my wife won't let me touch her sewing machines and she never seemed to get around to it. But I have about 3 yards of several different types of coated nylon that should work pretty for a camera/lens rain sheild.
