I don't have any experience with acrylic cement sc-125 but I have used weld-on #3 and weld-on #16 and both of the weld-on products worked great. I would recommend trying to locate some weld-on and remember weld-on #3 is water thin and if the cuts are not perfect it won't seal. I personally thought weld-on #16 worked the best but my cuts were bad.

Weld-on #4 is stroger than #3. I used #4 for my sump. No experience with sc-125.
