Re: Help me Fix a Panel
Gorilla glue is the best way to go. I built a CNC machine and I trusted that to hold my frame solid and flat.

Re: Help me Fix a Panel
You need to clamp it.Or it will push the part's apart.Gorilla Glue exspand's.

Re: Help me Fix a Panel
Epoxy would work best.

Re: Help me Fix a Panel
Can't tell you much about Gorilla glue but epoxy is a two part resin based solution like this: Araldite® Rapid 2 x 15ml Tube

Re: Help me Fix a Panel
Epoxy is the best for plastics, yes. But if you screw up and get it somewhere you cant get it off without a harsh solvent. I got some on my hand once with no solvent and had to pull it off, along with 90% of my skin. I just prefer to be safe and use gorilla glue.

Re: Help me Fix a Panel
this is a dedicate area to use epoxy or gorilla because of it density and swelling, therefore you do need to sand the glue down afterward. In this case I think crazy glue works best. Bottom line any clues will work with plastic.

Re: Help me Fix a Panel
Run down to your local welder's or bodyshop and get them to braze it. You can do it yourself if you have a Mapp Gas Torch
