Just wanted to say many thanks. I've been watching your posts for a while now. Had been going to ask how to do plastic repairs as I'm trying to repair a gsxr. The fairings are needing cracks filled and painted. Other issue is the bike had been knocked over in my garage and the petrol tank had an axle stand pierce the tank. What would be the best way to pull the split edges together, I did purchase a two part metal filler to plug the hole in the tank although there is still a crease hence I'm unsure of best way to repair, fill and sand as to get the best finish possible. I'm spraying the bike to match my wifes weekend toy which is an obsidian black 2.5 ltr Subaru Impreza sti. The Subaru J32 obsidian black has an amazing colour and very light sparkle to it. Also I've seen some paints that can supposedly spray the alloy frame. Any tips on painting those. 1507Lachlan on Instagram 😀
It’s always nice when a professional will take the time to show us wannabes how to attempt to do what they can do in their sleep. Thank you very much.. This is an excellent video well narrated and produced.
For those not having the equipment, a zip tie does it equally well. Use a lighter to set fire to, and melt, the zip tie, while holding it above the damage. The drips from the melted zip tie bonds with the plastic, and it gets really strong. With a bit of practising, the result can look like a TIG weld.
Cant control temperature of the plastic its dripping on so wont bond together or weld together,have you done the right test to id the plastic that needs fixing ?
The damaged plastic must be melted as well to mix with the filler plastic. Drips of burned plastic will not heat the damaged plastic to the correct temperature for melting and will barely stick to but not bond to (or repair) the damaged plastic.
DUDE!!! you literally have a video for every repair i need to ever do! .....and always a top notch, detailed tutorial that educates while entertaining. Thank you for all the work you put into this channel brother!! Very much appreciated! - Hawk
Awesome info as usual, and I enjoyed your detail. No skimping on process, which matters!:) Proper repairs make a world of difference for lasting quality. Some of us are working on those special projects we don't want to pay an arm and leg for, so knowing how to do it right really helps! Thank you!!
I have a tip for you. If you want to speed the process up a lot you can get one of those little pencil torches and use that along with the flat tip to get things warmer faster. I use them all the time and my crack repair time is 75 percent faster. Obviously, you need to be careful not to get the plastic too hot but you know that. I have repaired hundreds of cracks with a torch and the welder and never had one fail. I also wanted to say that I actually think that my welds with the torch are stronger because I find that the plastic welder just doesn't get the bumper cover hot enough to bond all of the plastic together
Cool..good to know..bought my own first ride on a manual to learn how to drive, had mini accidents that fd my bumper & got it replaced for a couple hundreds..so i appreciate the time you put in this video to show us how we can invest in a tool like what you have shown us so we can diy our cars in welding plastic. Thanks man.
Hi Brian, I'm from Australia and just want to say great tutorial as its a different way to how i repair plastic. I use a hot air welding gun and heat up both plastics and let them fuse together.
I've probably shortened my lifespan after doing some plastic welding but the repairs are nice and solid. It saves throwing them in the bin and didn't cost me anything.
I am from St .Lucia and work in a auto body repair shop and i use a hot air machine with the different welding rod type selectors and melt the plastic in the cracks using a technic to repair plastic bumpers
Been doing plastic repair for years also, and just have to be that guy who point something out. . Of course : great video! Liked it a lot! In my experience, preheating the object with a heatgun until you see it becomes just a bit sweaty, (not much tho) will bond better. Plastics bond the best when both sides are “tangible” (hot) The massage after is what really does it. Too much heat can do the opposite favour of what you want, so mess around and make notice.. 220degrees C is a sweetspot. +/- 20 imo... Mostly i use handheld extruders with temp settings.
This video came at a perfect, thank you , we have to fix my sons bumper , we bought the kit a while ago, i have never fixed one , but you just made that easier for me, once again, great video
I repaired my inner-door panel on dodge caravan that cracked when removing the panel, had to replace Dodge's shitty factory actuator that is defaulting/breaking in the locked position, on "hundreds" of their vehicles! Boom! Dodge wanted $498 for a new panel! Your instructions worked perfectly for me with purchase of $35.00 (miniature), plastic welding kit! Thanks bud!
I use a propane torch, an old screwdriver and black zip ties(for filler rod). Worked on a radiator, interior plastic, broken headlight (the back side of course, not the clear front side). Haven't tried it on a bumper cover yet but I'm sure I'll have to eventually
Lol I didnt know they even had a plastic welder, wow, just wow im stunned....I actually could use that at the moment...really good yeh...very impressed
Nice job! Very well explained, great tutorial and video work. 👍 Depending on the repair, I might use the mesh more often than the staples. The mesh looks a lot more efficient and no little ends to break off, poke your fingers and then try sanding/grinding down. 😳🤪😁
good job, i do the same but different,,when i get a bumper that needs to be replaced , i take the no good bumper and i strip the paint off of it and i cut strips of it and save it to melt on a bumper that needs to be fix down the road,i save money ,and i can fix a bumper pretty cheap,,,my heat rod is a 10 dollar rod from princes auto ,,people laughs at it [or at me], i really donnt care because it gets the job done,,and when their 300 dollar heat rod broke,,than they ended up buying a heat rod like mind,,,now whos laughing,,i am enjoying watching your videos, for i am learning something from every video,,,i just wanted to say,,,thank you and your follow workers for shareing,, thank you
Hi Brian, great video. From my limited experience, drilling a hole in each end of the crack would prevent the crack from expanding further if the area was to be damaged again. This would be done before the sanding usually. 👍
Glad you covered plastic bumper repair snd using polyVance equipment as I was curious how it would work out snd the steps besides the how tos on their website.
Excellent demo and tutorial. I very much doubt however that a "professional" will ever take so much time or apply all the steps to effect a good result
I weld the crack to parent plastic only and it works every time. The green lids off milk bottles in the uk work well as filler. Yellow 110 volt site plugs also work well as filler if cut into strips. I did a video on how I do it.
I'm no pro by any stretch of the imagination but cracked and broken plastic parts have always begged for a decent way to be repaired. I have experimented with heating a flat blade screw driver with a propane torch and wiggled it down the cracked plastic until it no longer melted the plastic. Not pretty but as the saying goes...any port in a storm! Great vid
Pretty neat! Always wanted to know how to weld with plastic. What I have been doing is use Fiberglass mesh from screen doors and windows and glues the mesh to the joint with 5min epoxy, then Bondo the front.
I use a hot air gun to weld plastic. It also came in a kit with all the welding rods. It is difficult to get the proper temperature so the rod melts easily and not hot enough to ruin what you are welding. I also bought a hot staple gun. You melt steel staples right into the plastic to give it some serious strength. This works well with broken plastics like a motorcycle fender that has broken in half.
Totally learned a new technique with the stainless mesh and knowing the proper types of plastic I saw a guy using zip ties and a glue gun but you really don't know what type of plastic could this be a problem
Love this one! I bet the repair gave the panel some strength. I've done this with minimal tools and success. After watching this I feel I could confidently make a proper repair. Your awesome Brian, thank you for sharing your skills with us!
If you don't have the sticks you can cut some plastic from inside the bumper. It's bound to be compatible 👍 also a heat gun and a putty knife will get the mesh into the plastic faster
Years ago I worked as a plastic fabricator and mold maker. Your method is an acceptable one for reinforcing the plastic.....but (yes, there is a but...sorry); The bond you get with that method is certainly not the strongest. When you use the rod feeder to heat up the rod and fill in the "v" grove you don't get a strong bond to the piece you are welding, because you are using a hot piece of plastic (rod) and bonding it with a cold piece, (the body part you are fixing). Therefore you are not fully bonding, (melting), the pieces together. Think about what happens when mig welding metal... the pieces actually form a molten puddle and material from both flow together. (change from a solid to a liquid and back to a solid... molecules bonding). In order for a mig weld to be strong you have to use a shielding gas. This shielding gas voids the area of oxygen to allow the heat to penetrate the surfaces, thus allowing the changes of state to occur, (without oxygen to contaminate the weld). If shielding gas is not used the weld is full of tiny holes, (porosity). This is not a strong weld. The same is true when welding plastics like PP. The shielding gas used for welding plastics like PP is nitrogen. The process you used will not stand up and will eventually crack, especially in cold temperatures. ( I live in a cold climate and have learned the hard way, trying to cut corners.) There is a plastics welding gun made that allows you to feed compressed air, (for keeping your gun cool enough when not welding), and a line for nitrogen , (for when you are welding with nitrogen and the compressed air turned off). With that said,... you did put on a very good presentation, given the information and equipment you worked with. Check out "welding plastic with nitrogen". Cheers mate... :)))
I haven’t seen one of these since I worked at my uncles shop way back in the day refinishing old box trucks for UPS. A lot of people have no idea this is a thing. Cool! Did you learn paint and body with some old heads? The real OG’s that know all the tricks and used to use lead filler. Haha
i have used a torch and bumper cut up in strips and flat peace's then gommed it on with heat and flat metal tool gumming around in it that method fixed the bumper .lol i do recommend propane for smoothing faster but play with a test panel first it will burn and heat up fast but not hard to learn timing
Wow man ausome a lot of work but it looks challenging I like much appreciated 👍 grate knowledge thank you for sharing your experience and skills with all of us around the world 🌎 cheers and kindly 😀
I have this exact same plastic repair set and I have done many repairs with it. These days I tend to use hot stabeler and glues if possible bcs its so much quicker method to do these repairs. Also you wanna drill small holes to both ends to this crack bcs it helps that crack wont expand.
I left out the small holes technique by accident. In all honesty I probably will use epoxy for repair before I weld. Never tried hot staples before though.

I've been in the paint business for 50 years , us old guys can always learn something new ,I really appreciate your show And take care !!🍺🍺
As long as your willing to learn you never get too old

Thanks Robert. I read and listen to all the comments and even better videos follow.
Hello greetings from Tijuana Mexico. I own a small paint and body shop and I am very happy to have you share your knowledge with us.

thats how i used to apply p-tex ski and snowboard base repair. thanks for the tip!
@@tomr1107 You have to make sure it's the same type of plastic or it won't bond.
Cant control temperature of the plastic its dripping on so wont bond together or weld together,have you done the right test to id the plastic that needs fixing ?
The damaged plastic must be melted as well to mix with the filler plastic. Drips of burned plastic will not heat the damaged plastic to the correct temperature for melting and will barely stick to but not bond to (or repair) the damaged plastic.
That's going to be a cold weld, because the parent plastic isn't melting also. Not all zip ties are made of the same material, even the black ones.
You are a good instructor. You speak clearly, good pace. Thanks for clarifyin WHY you need aluminum tape. I learned lots and enjoyed it too
DUDE!!! you literally have a video for every repair i need to ever do! .....and always a top notch, detailed tutorial that educates while entertaining. Thank you for all the work you put into this channel brother!! Very much appreciated! - Hawk

Great instructional video!
Being a fabricator welding plastic for years my tip is to use acetone on PP or PE to clean before welding.
Hi Brian, I'm from Australia and just want to say great tutorial as its a different way to how i repair plastic. I use a hot air welding gun and heat up both plastics and let them fuse together.
Awesome tutorial my friend.
I really like how you take the time to thoroughly explain each step by step.
I've probably shortened my lifespan after doing some plastic welding but the repairs are nice and solid. It saves throwing them in the bin and didn't cost me anything.
Yeah. I was wondering why you guys aren't wearing masks
@@debrac1688 When plastic welding now i either do it outside or with a mask on next to an extractor fan.
I am from St .Lucia and work in a auto body repair shop and i use a hot air machine with the different welding rod type selectors and melt the plastic in the cracks using a technic to repair plastic bumpers
I'm trying to start a business in this field and ur video wS much more helpful then instructional videos
Great explaination, great demonstration. THIS is why you are a professional, who gets paid the BIG BUCKS!!!
Dang, never knew there was a kit for what I did with a scraper, trimmed off piece and solder iron. Very nice. Thank you.
Been doing plastic repair for years also, and just have to be that guy who point something out. .
Of course : great video! Liked it a lot!
In my experience, preheating the object with a heatgun until you see it becomes just a bit sweaty, (not much tho) will bond better.
Plastics bond the best when both sides are “tangible” (hot)
The massage after is what really does it.
Too much heat can do the opposite favour of what you want, so mess around and make notice..
220degrees C is a sweetspot. +/- 20 imo...
Mostly i use handheld extruders with temp settings.
great demo.I`ve done a bit of plastic welding and this video has great info.Thank you.
This video came at a perfect, thank you , we have to fix my sons bumper , we bought the kit a while ago, i have never fixed one , but you just made that easier for me, once again, great video
Let me know how it goes !!
This by far is the best welding kit I've seen!
It’s pretty good. Simple
Old School,I learned alot in this video information is powerful,THANK YOU............Fort Worth,Tx
I just love the way you explain the process, please keep it up.

I’m going to try this method on my cracked bike plastic parts. Thank you for sharing
Great job!! I also use steel wool on the bottom side to give it a more stabilizing benefit. As you say it’s only paint. Best regards, Richard
Lol I didnt know they even had a plastic welder, wow, just wow im stunned....I actually could use that at the moment...really good yeh...very impressed

Awesome and you’re right. You think smart and taking apart a old bumper is a way to save money!
used this video to put the mesh on my new hood scoop so I can start to bond the scoop to my hood now so it's functional. thank you!
Thanks for your clear and detailed video. Now I feel comfortable repairing my older BMW’s damaged bumper cover.
Thank you Brian, you spent a lot of time and finally you did a great job.
Great repair and super video. I've begun to try repairing plastic (not car bodies), and this is really helpful. Thank you for sharing 🙂
very kool tool!always wondered about something like it.I do it old school,butane torch and any plastic i have laying around.Thank you for the insite!
Thank you for the no BS, clear and concise video. This has really helped me out. THANKS!
Hi Brian, great video. From my limited experience, drilling a hole in each end of the crack would prevent the crack from expanding further if the area was to be damaged again. This would be done before the sanding usually. 👍
That sounds lik a good idea👍👍
That's what they do to stop cracks spreading in glass and engine blocks/cylinder heads.
Thank you for that idea about the holes i am going to use that when fix my cracked front bumper..
I love how these companies call a soldering iron a welder :))
Fantastic, had no idea how it was done CORRECTLY. Lifetime repair I dare say. Many thanks for sharing.
Well done👍👍Your videos are a true asset to society education. Keep up the good work. Doc🕊️
I have never seen plastic welding before. It was very interesting and educational thanks.
Hi Brian i always learn from you. THANK YOU FOR YOUR VALUED TIME.
ive been fixing broken and cracked plastic with a soldering iron and zip ties of the appropriate color for the last 30 yrs
I was about to comment that this is the way...
Wow, Great info on plastic bumper repair!!! Great lesson
I was taught from my Dad (Boeing and Ex-Skunkworks Employee) to use Plastic Zip Ties and a Basic Soldrring Iron!
Your dad was smart because thats what i do too
Glad you covered plastic bumper repair snd using polyVance equipment as I was curious how it would work out snd the steps besides the how tos on their website.
Much nicer than my zip tie drift stitches.
9:10 Where The Tires Slip as the Supercharger kicks in
Great video by the way man thank you so much
Keep up the amazing work
Looks better than my soldiering iron and cable tie repairs. Thanks for sharing.
But your technique is good for a Diy job where anesthetics aren't so important.
Excellent demo and tutorial. I very much doubt however that a "professional" will ever take so much time or apply all the steps to effect a good result

Got to say i love how easy they make it look.

Great video. Cannot understand how anyone could give this a thumbs down. Thank you for a clear and step by step video!
I have used this to fix my Honda engine cover. The back pins broke and I’m not paying $300 for a new one! Multi use tool and polyvarence support!
Thanks 😊 so very good to see a repair.. It will no doubt be very helpful regarding my project.
Totally learned a new technique with the stainless mesh and knowing the proper types of plastic I saw a guy using zip ties and a glue gun but you really don't know what type of plastic could this be a problem
Hey bro...this one really help me out on my next job...thank you....
I love watching these how to videos! For some reason with body work and painting projects I end up throwing something, cussing or messing it up more!😁
Awesome repair and video. Thanks for sharing! Hope you and the family are staying safe with this epidemic
Thanks for watching Juan. Doing just fine, but more work is so slow.
Love this one! I bet the repair gave the panel some strength. I've done this with minimal tools and success. After watching this I feel I could confidently make a proper repair. Your awesome Brian, thank you for sharing your skills with us!
Thank you. It doesn’t take much after you watch the video, it just takes patience. No real skill needed.
Very interesting and very clear explanation, thank you. I wish you to stay safe and healthy during this scary pandemic moment!
Thank you!
Got a nasty crack in my range rover bumper and this method although time consuming was the way to go thanks for the tutorial 👍🏻
Wonderful job thank you for sharing your thoughts and knowledge !!!! Aloha from Hawaii Jerry
If you don't have the sticks you can cut some plastic from inside the bumper. It's bound to be compatible 👍 also a heat gun and a putty knife will get the mesh into the plastic faster
Thanks Brian, another solid repair 👍
Wow thats great - did auto coliision 10 yrs ago and man has it changed - it looks more fun now
Been using this process for 20 years.
I love it I never used the flexcore on both sides. Just on one and filler on the other with the like bondo on the other
Superb video Brian thought I knew a fair bit till I saw this
Great job. You make it look so easy. Thank you sir.
I have used plastic padding and or epoxy glue.
A little bit of heat ,not to melt but to soften to enable a better bond.
Years ago I worked as a plastic fabricator and mold maker. Your method is an acceptable one for reinforcing the plastic.....but (yes, there is a but...sorry); The bond you get with that method is certainly not the strongest. When you use the rod feeder to heat up the rod and fill in the "v" grove you don't get a strong bond to the piece you are welding, because you are using a hot piece of plastic (rod) and bonding it with a cold piece, (the body part you are fixing).

Wife comes in at the end " What's Burning "
Lmao, so does the shop 🤣
This welding device is cool. You can't go wrong. Everything is identified for you.
I haven’t seen one of these since I worked at my uncles shop way back in the day refinishing old box trucks for UPS. A lot of people have no idea this is a thing. Cool! Did you learn paint and body with some old heads? The real OG’s that know all the tricks and used to use lead filler. Haha
Running a sander over a carpet! Your cleaning lady must love you. I hope you pay her well.
that's really good, I didn't realize that could be done.
You are a great teacher, Thanks for all your insight!
Hey! Thanks for checking out our airless plastic welder. Feel free to give us a call if you ever have any questions about plastic repair!
Would love to demo more products from polyvance on the channel. Feel free to message me at paint.society@yahoo.com
Thanks. Just looking for information on welding plastic. Not going to go to this level and probably only HDPE but this was very interesting.
Can’t wait to try this on a rare bumper lip I got from Japan
th-cam.com/video/yAoABEI7cL8/w-d-xo.html
i have used a torch and bumper cut up in strips and flat peace's then gommed it on with heat and flat metal tool gumming around in it that method fixed the bumper .lol i do recommend propane for smoothing faster but play with a test panel first it will burn and heat up fast but not hard to learn timing
Awesome video! I'm going to repair my atv fenders this weekend and hopefully save myself $800 on new plastics.
Good job, the back is good. I would have left the front. Now you have to paint the holl bumper to make it look even colored.
Brian awesome advice thank you I restore scooters you made my life so easy again thanks , and Stay Safe !
Wow man ausome a lot of work but it looks challenging I like much appreciated 👍 grate knowledge thank you for sharing your experience and skills with all of us around the world 🌎 cheers and kindly 😀
Felicidades Bryan muy buen trabajo ahora aprendí Cómo se puede arreglar un bumper de plastico?
Good job my friend ❤️ merry Christmas and happy new year! Keep safe!!
Thanks for posting, very educational
Very informative I learned something new. I actually just sent my bumper to plastic weld just wanted to see what’s the process. Thanks a lot
I learn something every video keep up the good work
I have this exact same plastic repair set and I have done many repairs with it. These days I tend to use hot stabeler and glues if possible bcs its so much quicker method to do these repairs. Also you wanna drill small holes to both ends to this crack bcs it helps that crack wont expand.
I left out the small holes technique by accident. In all honesty I probably will use epoxy for repair before I weld. Never tried hot staples before though.
fantastic great job i will look forward to your next u tube thanks
Nice repair technique.
Every time you say "PP" I can't help but giggle
Interesting and informative. Didn't know this tool existed.
