What is best compound(glue, epoxy?) to use?

Depends on the plastic. What are you trying to fix?


Front skirt (aire dam) of a car which is attached to the bottom of
bumper. Hit a snow bank and it caused a partial viertical crack.


What kind of plastic? More than one type is used for car bumpers and
air dams. Xylene (polycarbonate/polybutylene blend) is common for
hard bumpers, but a separate dam attached to the bumper may be high-
density polyethylene, fiberglass, or sheet urethane (Saturn body
material).
