Wondering if I should be concerned about long-term venting/outgassing of the clear sealant I used to bond together some acrylic sheets when I made my lid/top. (Basically cut two sheets of acrylic to shape to act as a frame for regular clear mesh/screen, plus have a set-in feeding door, and then sandwiched the mesh/screen between the two frames/shapes)
Here's what I used (just because it is crystal clear and bonds nicely to acrylic):
Lexel Clear Sealant
*It has warnings about inhalation (mentioning toluene) which I think is for while you're working it (wet).
My assumption is that after full cure, it would be safe, in terms of outgassing/venting toxins into the air (gas exchange at the water surface) but maybe that's not a safe assumption?
Curious what others think. (Not finding any long-term details like that so far)
Aside -- if you have thoughts on a better/safer silicone that is really clear, I'm interested.
