In Reply to: What type of glue works? posted by John Millward on November 24, 2000 at 14:23:44:


If the spoiler is cracked to the edge, the only way to do it is to reinforce the back (where it won't show) with a patch (plastic or sheet metal) bridging the crack.

An epoxy will stick as long as you rough up the surface slightly.

Trying to repair a small crack in the front spoiler. None of the glues I have seem to work. I am looking for a solvent type glue because I think 'superglue' or araldite will fail pretty quickly. Just to complicate the issue I'm in the UK so US trade names may not help much. BTW tried using a soldering iron to 'weld' it from behind - not hot enough to melt it!
