Suggestions for Repairing Plastic

Posted by Craig the Clipper Man On 2016/3/2 11:07:15

Around the bottom of the front seat of my Clipper is a somewhat flimsy plastic apron (for want of better description. Last year I used a plastic weld to repair cracks on the apron and repainted it. That seemed to work out pretty well until recently when a piece of plastic broke off above the power seat control switch.

This piece had rested atop a steel brace, which I think puts too much pressure on the plastic. I think it is a rather bad design because the steel piece is not curved to accommodate the plastic apron, so I am tempted to write to Packard management to complain.

I would appreciate any suggestions about what you folks think are the best repair techniques and plastic repair products. I would like to fix this so it doesn't break again next year (if possible).
