Plastic Welding
Posted: Wed Jan 17, 2018 8:39 pm
Hi All
I came across a product by chance the other day that may help solve a problem similar to mine.
The original ABS plastic cover on the central frame member on my early (1600 S1) started to crack a few years ago, this is an early dark grey colourd one that is not, as far as I know, replicated. I was going to take it to a body repair shop that I understand can now effectively weld plastic car components.
The gizmo is an ultra violet curing tool with that activates and cures a pen dispensed crack filler and chemically bonds the break together. I haven't got to it yet but will report back.
Bondic, manufactured by Laser Bonding Tech Inc in Canada - {www.notaglue.com}. Costs about $Can20.00
