Patching A Small Hole In Plastic Case: What To Use, Please ?
Hi,
Have a "patching" job, and not sure what to use. Would be most grateful for any suggestions. Had to take apart a kids toy, plastic housing, to fix the motor inside. They glued the housing, no screws, so the case is now fairly "butchered," with some cracks, etc., as a result of my taking it apart. I can use epoxy on the cracks just fine, but the case now also has some approx., 1 inch (some 1.5 inch) holes and cutouts. Epoxy doesn't seem correct for this, as I think it's too big a space to cover. I can put a piece of wood behind the hole when I'm patching it to give some grab to the patching compound, and minimize the depth of the hole. What should I use other than epoxy for these "holes" ? Again, it's a plastic case. Would want it to "set-up" Hard (like epoxy would) Any other thoughts on doing the patching would be most appreciated. Thanks, Bob |
