Google says plastic is PVC so a glue for PVC should work.

It's not quite as simple as that.


There are seven types of plastic:

Polyethylene Terephthalate (PETE or PET)
High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE)
Polyvinyl Chloride (PVC)
Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE)
Polypropylene (PP)
Polystyrene or Styrofoam (PS)


There's a lot more than that.


Name them!
