Sugru?

It's not cheap though!

Agreed.

I am acquainted with an Apple Magsafe laptop connector that was "mended"
by someone with Sugru. It looked pretty mucky after a bit of use. The
connector failed after a year or two of intermittently working. So the
Sugru was simply an extra expense, and a delaying factor in going for
the right solution.

It is interesting, it might have its place, but I am sceptical,
especially at the price.
