Best glue for broken windscreen/body moulding?
« on: August 26, 2015, 09:31:48 AM »
So I fell off my scooter this morning (mud patch on bicycle path cause front tire to skid out).
And when the scooter went over, the corner of the wind screen broke off. What's the best glue to reattach the piece?

Also a piece of the body moulding broke as well. (see attachment - I've circled the part). What is the best glue to use here?

If there's a crack I'd recommend drilling a small hole at the end of it to stop it from cracking any farther. You'll probably want to glue a backing strip on the backside of the repair for strength on the body panel. Five minute or quick set epoxy will probably work unless you can find someone with a plastic welder. The windscreen I've drill stopped the crack & then drilled holes on each side & used wire ties every couple inch/couple cm's to hold it together. Kind of gives it a Frankenstein look, or some character :o
