All I know is that MEK glues PET very well.
Which Means that it dissolves it.

PET and mylar(melinex in the UK) are both synthesised from dimethyl
terephthalate and ethylene glycol to yield polyethylene terephthalate
which is not soluble in acetone or MEK.
Are you sure you are not confusing the above with Polyester resin?
Try dissolving a few fibres of a polyester jacket (PET) in either of the
above solvents!
