Glueing fibreglass
What's a good glue for glueing fireglass plastic sheet (and it needs
to be waterproof)? I need to glue a strip of sand back down a fibreglass valley gutter for the mortar flaunching to bond to. Some parts of the sand strip have come away whilst removing the old mortar flaunching. -- Andrew Gabriel |

Fibreglass is normally bonded with polyester resin. Thanks Rob. Any product/trade names I should look for in the DIY sheds or Screwfix (which I think is open on Sundays near me)? It's not something I'm familiar with. -- Andrew Gabriel |

Car accessory places should have fibreglass patching kits, which will come with thin resin, or they might have the resin and hardener separately. Cheers. Picked up some David's Fastglass polyester resin from local car accessory shop. -- Andrew Gabriel |
