I'm looking at this for repairing some cracked trim panels on my convertable, since I can't find any locally or out on the net (where the owner doesn't want an arm, leg, and a hank of hair in return).

I'm just wondering if it's strong and fairly easy to pick up working with. The pictures of example repairs in the catalog look kickass. They show actually making missing pieces.

Here's what I'm looking at:



RIGID PLASTIC REPAIR KIT BLACK
Item-no 40025 $29.99

The Plastifix Plastic Repair Kit makes strong, permanent repairs to almost any hard plastic (and many other materials). It's easy, safe, and cures in minutes! Mix the powder and solvent to repair cracks, fill gaps, 'weld' panels or fix stripped threads. The kit includes a reuseable 'molding bar' so you can replicate and attach broken tabs, patch holes-even make small parts. Plastifix can be used on ABS, poly-carbonate, acrylic, styrol, PVC, FRP (polyester),glass metal & wood (it won't adhere to polypropylene or polyethylene). Available in black(for structural repair on materials listed above) white or clear.

 

That's the kit where they make a mold? I've seen it, looks like a great idea. I forget, do they sell extra materials? Or do you have to drop $30 each time you run out of the plastic?

 

Well, it looks like most of what you get in the kit is consumable anyway so there's really not much to sell seperately. I suppose with the "mold bar" you couldn't have too much..hehe.

Nobody's actually used it though?

 

Rise..... risssseee!
