Best Glue for Plastic Bumpers?

Salmon · 14th March 2018, 20:10

I need to buy some glue to fix my wife’s front bumper.
Has anyone used and can recommend a brand.
Thanks all.

Cyanoacrylates (Super Gloos) are good for fixing cracks in ABS - if that's what it's made from(??)
I guess it depends on the sort of 'fix' needed (holes, splits, etc).

If it is cracked, the professionals insert cross crack metal links by heat as well.

Try MITRE BOND it's 2 part and it dries in 20 seconds. Just try not to get your fingers stuck to the bumper. I am a joiner and we use it for all materials Inc wood and plastics.

It's a cyanoacrylate type, as originally suggested.

I had an unfortunate meeting with a deer 2012 which resulted in my front bumper requiring repair. I had to manufacture a new mount for the near side fog light + a few cracks!!

I used this -> https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/160570141...E:L:OC:GB:3160 <-

I have no affiliations with the seller

I think it's the same stuff a Mr China once used on a BMW bumper.

My bumper is still holding up fine.
