    Zip ties are great if you’re missing a few plastic clips. The front
    grille on my tacoma is ziptied. That’s right, i’m ghetto.

    Those cheap plastic lawn chairs break easy, right at the center.
    Drill a few holes and zip tie the sucker. Also ghetto.

    I hate gorilla glue…
    That crap is like expanding foam from hell.
    I used it once on a chest in the house, was putting sliders on the feet so it wouldn’t scratch the wood floor.
    Well I figured a little chocolate chip size for the silver dollar sized slider would be good enough. Came back, and not only had it expanded all around the damn thing and consumed part of the foot of the chest, it also glued it to the fu!@#$%^ Floor!

    Strong, Hell yes it is strong! I had to sand that *** off. (So much for not scratching the wood floors!) What a mess. What a disaster. Never again…

    They should at least inform you on the bottle that it will expand to 600 times it’s original size, and it will consume and cover anything within a 1 mile square radius…

    [quote]As bondo says, a good hot weld is always the best for stuff like that if you can.[/quote]

    As I say – If you can.

    For the kinds of plastic that don’t hot weld adequately, I use the Lord Fusor range. Used and approved by many OEM’s, and I haven’t found anything to beat them yet.

    Groove out the crack then give it a quick squirt of adhesion promoter. Apply a dab of #142 and by the time you’ve gone and washed your hands the repair is good to go 😉
