it probably wouldnt work with anything you would have at home a kiln would burn it a double boiler wouldnt get it hot enough recycling companies granulate it and melt it in a chamber then extrude it but i dont think that would work for you also when plastic melts it is kindof syrupy the best thing for you to do is to go out and buy a sheet of plastic

Patches

Have you ever melted chocolate or crayons? It is the same process you need indirect heat you would need a bigger pot dirrectly on the stove with water in it and a smaller pot inside that with the plastic in it. It will probably take quite a while but this should work.
