"Welding" damaged plastic parts
Hey guys,
Just thought I'd share this. I found this product that can be used to repair cracked plastic parts. It's called PlastiFix. Check it out on this site... there's a video showing how it's done.

Looks pretty good. Seeing as some plastic parts may be hard to come by, this could come in handy.

Interesting.
It shows the same technique you would use with any repair on that sort of material, but this as an acrylate adhesive, instead of the usual epoxy or solvent-based bonding agents.

I have used a similar product called Plastex. Great stuff. It has fixed dash cracks, filled small holes (that wern't supposed to be there), I have even made broken corners and missing pieces. My latest repair was a missing corner on a 70-72 console compartment insert. The only thing I have not been sucessful with is filling large areas that have a texture. There just isn't any good way to create the texture and blend it to the adjacent area.
If you do a lot of resto work, its a great item to have hanging on the wall.
