Hello Everyone,

Just wondering, what people use for gluing cracked plastic transistor radio cases?
I glued such plastic before with ABS cement, with super glue, and with "5 minute" epoxy, with various degrees of success.
Which one is preferred, which one is stronger?
Anything else I should consider using or should avoid?

Thanks, Peter

Any comment?

I've used "Testors Plastic Cement", it's thinner than water and wicks into the crack and "welds" the plastic together. Cures quickly - not instantly. It says "No. 3502" on the bottle (1 oz). I've had it for years so I don't know if its still available (google it). Contains MEK so it has that wonderful airplane dope aroma.

Hi Vince,

Thanks for the comment!
I googled that Testors Plastic Cement, it is still available. My main problem with the ABC cement was that it was too thick.
I will try this.

Thanks, Peter
