Thank you very much buddy. That's really helpful.
Hey there. I broke the throttle lever on my quad ATV. It's heated and it's going to cost over $130 to replace I was hoping to repair it with some type of adhesive. Any suggestions?
kaboom362 can you send us some pics of it so we can try and help you SWEETPROJECTCARS@GMAIL.COM
You are great! first time I’ve ever seen you. And you’re perfect for me. You don’t leave any of the steps out, that’s great. And you passionate you love what you’re doing. So you’re the one I’ll be following . I was just wanting to know how to harden up plastic I broke my dang metal detector. But I’ll be following you not only are you wonderful but you have a sense of humor and really funny I love “isn’t that gorgeous?”
Thank you
Laurie
Thanks for all your awesome videos. I have used some of the information in them with great results. I'm a veteran and I'm supplementing my income by fixing up auction cars and selling them. I used the videos on carpet and interior cleaning and made a trashed looking light tan interior look and smell like a new car, I doubled my money on that car. Now this one on plastic repair came along just in time. I have an SUV with a broken bracket on the center console. I was just going to try to replace it, but I think now I can fix it a lot cheaper and with less hassle.
Hi there...you know what I was doing this for more than 20 years..I like to used fiberglass it’s save me time and money and I teach my friends how to use it.....you still have a great video and jobs..... thank you and have a good weekend.....👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I wish this was out before my bumper tore off and flew away in the darkness. But now i know and there are some other plastic parts to repair. Thank you.
Have barely even started the video yet im loving his confidence
Glad you liked it Rodney! Thank you for watching and sharing, hope you have a great weekend my friend. mad Mike
You are amazing. The fear factor is the biggest block for me doing stuff like this but you dive right in and aren't afraid to fail. Thanks my friend. I wish I could spend a day or two with you in your shop.
You can do more than you think you can one good thing about this is most things can be repaired even if you make a mistake you can always start over
Very timely! I've been subscribed for quite some time and my door panel just broke yesterday. I hadn't watched the vid yet but remembered seeing "Strongest Plastic Repair" from Sweet Project Cars come up on my feed recently. Thanks again!!
this was super helpful - I had no idea how to fix plastic pieces that break or crack - and I have a bunch of them on my truck. Thanks!
Having worked with resin and fiberglass before, I have a suggestion. After you put the fiberglass on the plastic, let the resin gel (before it fully hardens) and just cut the excess fiberglass off flush to the plastic with a razor blade. No need to trim the excess with the scissors or with a cutting wheel. Your razor blade cut would already be perfectly flush with the edge of the plastic.
Thank you for watching and for your tip, we appreciate it, hope you have a great evening and Happy New Year. mad Mike the hammer SPC
We fail but we don't quit. Automatic subscription. Repairing my 96 Impala SS
Thanks so much Craig! Welcome, we are glad to have you with us my friend, we have lots to share to help you with your project. Have a fantastic day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I tell people all the time , what makes some one good is how. Quickly they recover from their mistakes and fails.
Building and repairing, unexpected , things happen all the
time , A problem solver is what you are, it takes desire to over come a problem.
Many people in forums research and research till they are blue in the face and fingers .Just so they dont make a mistake. Yes research, yes try and not make a mistake. But if you dont experience mistakes you misout on learning .
Anybody that is an expert has made more mistakes than anybody that is what makes them an expert
DONT BE AFRAID TO FAIL !
Another useful video ,always love the practical money saving approach..Thank you
Your comment makes all the sense in the world my friend and you are exactly right Einstein did not fail 10,000 times he just found 10,000 ways that did not work learning what doesn’t work helps us especially working on cars what does work
Fibreglass is amazing, about 15 years ago the top hinge of my escort ghia was rotten and the door fell off. I made some cardboard templates for the two holes, soaked in resin and gardener and started building it back up, one cardboard template and then glass fibre sheet, sanded repeat sanded and put door back on, it lasted many years then I sold it. Have always used fibreglass since especially on the bottom of the front wings due to living underneath big trees the leaves always drop down the back and completely rot them out but not when they fibreglass, mesh and hammerite :).
What no Julio? I feel cheated man!
Thanks for the continuous uploads, I sure have learned a lot from watching your vids and am truly grateful.
I’ve never actually used the resin method myself - which I’m sure produces spectacular results, but one alternative I’ve come across especially useful on larger plastic items such as a vertical split in a bumper cover is to do the following:
1. Clamp both ends of the split to re-form the broken piece
2. Drill small holes on either side of the split big enough for cable ties to go through. If split is vertical then the drilled holes should be horizontal I.e perpendicular to the split
3. As the cable tie will sit proud of the plastic when tied, use a small drill to dig a channel/groove in the plastic between each pair of holes.
4. Dig another groove along the split so you have a V-shaped groove all along the split.
5. Use a cable-tie (new or off-cut) and a soldering iron (cheapest on Amazon is £3.50) and fuse the cable tie along the split with the soldering iron/pen.
6. Whilst no. 5 is still hot, run cable ties through each pairs of holes (try and use the thinnest ties that will do the job), tighten them to the max point and trim off excess. The horizontal cable ties should sitting in the channels you drilled out and should be holding the two parts of the split now so remove the clamps.
7. You should now have a really strong join albeit ugly looking.
8. Use body filler (you will probably have some lying around the garage), sand, prime and paint as required.
9. Total cost of job should be less than £10 incl soldering pen - excl paint.
10. Re-attach bumper cover, stand back and admire your handiwork
Hope this makes sense and is of use to you guys out there in YT land
abuhamza1970 Julio had the day off... and thank you for sharing my friend your handy repair.
Used that same mesh and fiberglass cloth to repair a rusted out floor in a van.. strong!
It really is, it's the best we've found David! Thanks for watching and sharing, have a great day my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Fiberglass is a God send! 😁 But!!! You get it on something unforgiving and it’s there for life! 😢. Did FG repairs in the AF. Too much hardener and watch the smoke 🤯. Love the vids so keep ‘me coming Captain 👨✈️!
Harry Pouncey thanks so much my friend :)
Have been away from computer for a while....too much work around the farm and now getting ready here in East TN for the rain to come on in from the Hurricane. This is an extraordinary tip for sure.......so many things that break that just get tossed due to the inability of adhesives to hold without some support....you have made more than a few folks happy with this one ...the link going to facebook.
I've tried the same way and it works .. save me money instead of buying a new rear bumper ... it's best at youtube...millions thumbs up
Spozz no...only 1 ...
You always share the best tips! No bull, just relevant advice. Have a great weekend :)
You very much my dear we try to get right to it with just the facts and keep it straight across-the-board have a great weekend
Thanks for the information. I have an old 4 wheeler with broken plastics. Gonna give this a try.
I also love the super glue and baking soda method that works great. Next time I'll have to try this
Thank you very much we truly appreciate that this method here we share is the most permanent there is
I've used the epoxy and resin fiberglass for years. It's great for a lot of projects even busted wooden doors but it doesn't stick well to soft waxy plastics.
Thanks for watching and sharing Jack, we appreciate the input, hope you have a great week my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
That works great on metal gas tanks to. I had a VW 1982 and the tank had holes in it $800 bucks new or $20 dollar repair held up for the 6 years I had it and it’s still holding.
Got that right Jeff this will work and most anything and it is not affected by gas or any type of cleaner thank you for sharing my Friend
I can vouch for this method. I put my elbow through the armrest of my old 1995 Saturn Wagon door panel trying to adjust my seating position. Took the panel off, fiberglassed the broken area with cloth and resin and it was good as new for another two years till I finally traded it off.
I fixed the radiator fill "neck" in my truck like this once. It lasted about 20 years. :)
Nice! Thank you for watching and sharing, we appreciate it my friend. Have a fantastic day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I needed to know if it would withstand heat, found your comment @mcdevious2229. 20 years, that's a definite "yes". I'd want to fix my '04 Passat's reservoir which has a hole and spits fluid out. OEM replacement is $300, no thank you.
Great tip it works great and really strong I been using fiberglass for a long time on plastic when I have. Broke it or to reinforce it. Well done my friend have wonderful weekend
I’ve never had to use it but now if I need to I’ll feel more confident. Thanks for this great tip.
Very Nice. Really good to know about this technique. Thanks for Sharing Sweet Project Cars.
I have tried just about every "epoxy for plastic" that there is over the years. And nearly everyone of them, even though they are supposedly "made to repair plastic", once cured they just peel off. The only one that I have found to work worth anything, is the JB Weld "Putty Stick" for Plastic. Its a putty that comes in a tube, all you do is cut off the amount you need, knead it up to mix, and apply it. Now THAT One actually works, and it holds to just about any plastic I've used it on, and since its not a liquid you can add it as thick as you want too for additional reinforcement or ect. You can also sand, shape, drill, and ect after it cures. Just used some today to fix two broken mounting brackets to a headlight on my Dads car. Got to buy some more, as I just ran out and I always try to keep this stuff on hand.
But this technique here with the fiberglass resin could be very useful for a LOT of repairs, and especially if it's a larger repair, or if you really need to reinforce it like with the wire mesh. A lot of uses to be sure. Great knowledge to have. Thanks Again for Sharing
Warren Smith thanks for sharing my friend we do appreciate that thanks mike
i see i needed to watch some of these vids like this one to see what i'm doing wrong and how to better make repairs on sun/heat damaged 90s GM interior door panels that are near impossible to find a good replacement anymore
Mix it right, or it gets brittle and may fall out again if you use too much hardener. Also use a chip brush to apply, clean with acetone. Apply the cloth to the item to be fixed, brush on. I have fixed many surfboards and boats. (That was hard to watch)
Goomer we have done this for 25 plus years on 100's of customer item and never had it fall out or crumble or get brittle. thanks for sharing
My point is there is a better way to do it. Every begineer dips the cloth in the resin, brushing on with a chip brush penetrates and look much better, less messy. But suit yourself.
Goomer there is always a better way to do things all depends on how much money you want to spend.
SWEEEEET
STRENGHT
I'VE USED TOILET PAPER AND SUPER GLUE, I WAS AMAZED, I'M SURE FIBERGLASS IS BETTER
Crazyhorse AZ thanks for sharing that does work for sure, but for ultimate strength, we use the resin and epoxy.
NO TELLING HOW MUCH MONEY I'VE WASTED OVER THE YEARS THROWING AWAY BROKEN PLASTIC...THANKS SPC!!
Tyler you are very welcome my friend
Thanks for this great quick tutorial! What i needed to know in less than 10”. Im working on some of the exterior plastic trim off of a motorhome. I’ve been searching RV and the boat videos. Fiberglass info shouldn’t be so hard to find. (Could be me, though).
Great video and repair procedure, thanks!
Here's a video idea for you, show people how to form the fiberglass and resin to either repair things like broken gauge pods, or how to just make your own custom pods or other items.
Robert G thank you my friend and we will see what we can do on that video :)
That would be awesome! Thanks!
Another Excellent Product is PC7 Epoxy, I use it for Restoring Steering Wheels.. Like you always Say, Clean Well, first, with Acetone or Alcohol...
Thank you Dave we appreciate that appreciate you sharing
I use any epoxy with fiberglass cloth. It would be interesting to see a strength comparison between resin and epoxy.
John O'Neill you will see how strong the resin is when our video comes out today as it has an update in it for the resin repair.
Thank you so much, my washing machine_door just broke and I'm ready to repair it. I still need to find some fiber fabric patch to top it off. I have a synthetic bra net In case I can't find the fiberglass patch. I'll let you know how it turned out. Big hug🙆
I'm so proud of myself I fixed it😂👌. I wish I could share my picture.
God Bless you SPC! Your encouraging us to do it is wonderful!!! Keep it going!!!
thank you bossa that means a lot to us
I used that stuff on my riding mower Hood. Work great.
Yet another sweeeeeeeeeeet tip (......will it never end????? how many can one person have !! :)...have been following you for sometime now, ALWAYS great tips! I now have the knowledge for plastic repairs, yet so many parts on my vehicles are made of nylon......too slippery for conventional adhesives, any chance in the future you could give us some "sweeeet-tips" on repairing these parts????? Thanks for your time in filming / editing and sharing your knowledge with us all!
Leroy Christen, On "slippery" plastics, I have made repairs using the fiberglass cloth and resin by drilling small holes in the broken piece for the resin to "grip" onto and hold together.
Robert G make sure you catch our video on Tuesday as we show how strong this repair actually was.
Ok THANKS!
I can see clearly now. Thanks, Late Night Chicago Radio
Thanks for watching Denny! Have a great weekend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Nice work! I was actually searching for a video to repair snap in 110 volt sockets. I don't think this will work for that because its too tight of a space. HOWEVER I have a seat valance for a 2005 Ford Expedition that has a 'pillar' that snapped in half. I've tried a half dozen other 'fixes' that have eventually failed. The issue is that since the failed part is along the side of the seat, where the controls for positioning are located. If I am not careful or in a hurry I inevitably end up putting my body weight too close to the valance and re-break the part. I'll keep you posted if this method lasts. Thanks again!
This is a great tip! I've got a power seat transmission that's in pieces gonna give this a shot👍
Stag you will love the results thank you for sharing have a great day Mike Sweet project cars
I always love all of your videos and this one will be particularly useful as I have a project I want to try to tackle this weekend. Thank you for all your great videos!
Hey SPC,
Speaking of plastic, I got a unique question. Not sure if you're a fisherman or not, but I'm sure you'll know what I'm talking about. I have one of those pond hopper plastic boats. If it was yours, how would you "treat" it? 303? Anything else? I appreciate you and love your vids.
Thanks Brother
This is awesome. I sometimes see repairs and I will stop to admire them because they were done so well.
I also stop when i see horrendous repairs just so I can regain my composure. Lol Nah I'm not that bad but a repair is supposed to be a fix not a bandaid. It's like people that put a bumper back on a car with only zip tie's. When I see such a
( repair ) I always ask myself, Who are these people that do crap like
that ???
Nice alternative to the super glue and baking soda trick that also works great!
Scott LePage this is the ultimate fix with the super glue and soda you can still snap it off, this is basically indestructible.
I love fiberglass, you can make just about anything with it. The only thing I don't like about it is the mess. It's like eating pancakes with syrup or using anti-seize... it ends up everywhere!
Bruce thanks so much for sharing my friend
Great video,I used fibre glass last year to repair the body on my friends drone after he crashed it,he crashed it a second time but the repair held out
Good deal glad to hear that my friend
Instead of an old screwdriver give the grandkids Popsicles and then use them for mixing. 😃
Scrapes right off screwdriver once it cures.
That's another great tip for the memory banks.
Thank you Norm we truly appreciate that my friend we will see you Sunday
That was one Sweeeeeet Friday tip! Really useful information! Before watching your previous plastic repairs I would have never tried to repair a broken plastic part. But I gotta say your methods deliver the truth. I've repaired parts as small as the tabs on my 93 Mercedes interior map light lenses with great success! Great instruction here SPC! Have a great weekend!
Thank You frank we truly appreciate all your awesome comments my great friend
Great video! Fibre glass has saved my bacon more than once. 🙂👍🏻👍🏻
Ian I’m with you my friend I don’t know what we would do without it
Good video and a great idea to include links for shopping in UK thank you 👍
Glad it was helpful! Thank you for watching and commenting Terry, we truly appreciate it my friend. Hope you have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I would love to see a video on how to repair punctures in door panels along with the materials that "actually" work.
Please send us some pics of your damage so we can help you, send to sweetprojectcars@gmail.com
This is great ! But I tried something easier too called M-seal Regular. Its epoxy made in India but sooo strong !!
Good introductory speech man!
Thank you very much, we appreciate your view laskartrece! Have a great week. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Dude, you just saved me a shit loud of money. Thank you...
Nice! Glad we could help. Thank you for watching. Hope you have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Thanks for the video.
It's true one must never give up.
My tortilla top plate lifting nonmetallic part got broken, right in the middle where the handle contacts it to apply some pressure. I tried using an epoxy - glass building material putty, called "emseal" which shattered after some use.
The spare parts are not available from the manufacturers. So I will try to use fibreglass and 'araldite"
as my resin requirement is so small.
The original parts I presume
were bakelite.
These parts have contact with hot surfaces, which maybe I could buffer with some aluminum.
I am a senior citizen now but I recall it being directed that the extra hardener used does not take part in the desired reaction but remains free to corrode any metal within. Perhaps glass powder or silica flour could be used to fill the voids to get some hardness.
Maybe it's worth noting.
Thanks again.
For small plastic parts you can use super glue, then sprinkle baking soda on it for a hardener, works great,very strong.
Forgot to mention, I heard this method is used on helicopter rotar blades for dings & etc. They fill, sand, refill till they get the shape they want.

Like the DJ at the Disco club says- "Look at all that gorgeous polyester!"
Thank you have a Bubba we appreciate that
I like Black ABS Cement rather than epoxy. It really bonds with ABS.

Where would a guy look for those stick on metal mesh squares? I figure Home Depot would have them but without knowing what they are originally used for, it might be an extensive search up and down the aisles looking for them.
Tj all the tools are in the "SHOW MORE" of the videos description but here it is amzn.to/2DTUtpw
Hi, will this method work to fix a plastic auger housing for a snow blower. There are cracks in the housing, I will apply this patch on the outer side which will not be in contact with the auger or snow directly. Wanted to get feedback so that I can decide to get a new housing for $100 or fix it for $20, have to take the entire blower apart for this work. thank you.
If you follow the video to a T it will work great for you my friend, save yourself the $$. Thanks for watching and asking, have a great day and all the best on your project. mad Mike the hammer SPC

No problem I know your busy. Whenever you can I appreciate it pal.
I have the dreaded ABS Daully fenders on my 04 Silverado.
I want to use fiberglass on the inside to reinforce them from cracking and busting .
Epoxy resins will not harm or react to this type of plastics ?
Some of my research has told me the traditional organic peroxide fiberglass resins will indeed melt ABS.
Thanks again
we have found no issues on they ones we have done
trippy. just noticed your left forearm. dyh titanium in your wrist? same keloid scar. I admit you lost me on the welding rv stuff but I never hit "not interested". You dont say what the other 2 ingredients are in best plastic restorer. fyi I 3D print some parts I break w/metal infused plastic. & I thought Dsuz 1 way auto fasteners were 1x use parts? Never seen 1 break a part. IF I can get behind it I use a flat bladed small screwdriver to bend the ruffles down so it comes out eqsily. Always great vids. 👍
No titanium in my wrist, although I do have some in my ankle, LOL. Thank you for watching and sharing, we really appreciate it, have a great week my friend. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Dude you are my hero!
Awesome! Glad to hear :) Thank you for watching and your kind comment! Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
That is fiberglass resin and hardner in your link. An epox that is designed for plastic should bond stronger.
we have found after 40 years of gluing that this has been the strongest for us
A work of Art!!!
I was actually hoping you'd reattach one of the hinges which clip on to the car..the metal hinges that have the plastic "welds"
Yeah we do the most and best we can in our videos, but the average watch time of most videos is about 30 seconds. Thanks for watching, have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC
I realize this is an old video. Will fiberglass resin adhere permanently to all types of plastic? I have a plastic body panel and a plastic windshield washer fluid reservoir on a Tahoe that need repairing. I was thinking of trying Tiger Bond on the body panel but like using fiberglass with resin.
We haven't found a plastic that it doesn't adhere to JT! Thank you for watching and asking, have a great day and all the best on your project. mad Mike the hammer SPC
What if you have a broken panel with a very clean break and one side is painted. Can this method work effectively on the back side to prevent the need for repainting? I have an ABS fender on my motorcycle that a tiny corner took a freak impact that broke a small triangular shaped piece clean off. The piece broke so clean that when you put them back together you cant see the crack unless your about a foot away. The part that broke is decorative and is not structural. A new fender is over $165. So I'm looking to repair this, but since the bike is new (I just rolled past 85 miles) it has to look good as well and no repaint. 🤔
Great video... What's the brand of Resin, Hardener and epoxy you're using? Thanks!

Any idea if it will work on an ABS plastic (suitcase)?
Give it a shot yoheff! You have all to gain and nothing to lose my friend. Thanks for watching, have a great week. mad Mike
I have a SAND FILTER that is leaking at a seam. It's an expensive tank so i would like to try to repair it. It's under pressure so, do you think that fiberglass would work and stop the leak? IF you do, can you please tell me which EPOXY and HARDENER is BEST? Also... how would you go about it if it were your filter? Would you do multiple layers once each has cured? There is a lot of water swooshing around in that tank so even though the gauge may read 20psi, it's a heck of a lot more. I really don't want to spend 1300$ on a Hayward SX360 filter. Chances are, it may fail again anyways. I would appreciate your professional advice. Thank you in advance.
Great tip once again. Enjoy the holiday Mike 👍🏻
Tuddie our great friend and subscriber thank you very much and you have an awesome night as well!

I THINK YOU CAN EVEN FIX A RADIATOR WITH THIS METHOD
RIGHT?
MY RADIATOR HAS A SMALL HOLE.
OR WHAT SHOULD I DO WITH THE PROBLEM I HAVE WITH MY RADIATOR..!
THANKS
This is a good fix for your radiator at least it will last long enough for you to save the money to buy new
Do you think it will work on a broken sled? Can't find anywhere to buy a new one.
Give it a shot, sounds like you've got nothing to lose my friend. Have a great day. mad Mike the hammer SPC

nice video...greetings from croatia
After fiberglass resin is cured it can remain sticky for a long time. This can be remedied by wiping the repaired area with lacquer thinner, acetone or MEK!
Kevin Jacobsen before or after the resin is used ?
All depends on the material you are repairing and what type or resin you use.
Polyester will not chemically bong with Epoxy, so bear that in mind
For the average everyday Joe, the fix that we share will repair 99.99% of anything that they are going to mess with. Thanks for watching. mad Mike the hammer SPC
Will it hold up under vibration , like on a riding mower. The hood is part plastic and part tin/metal. And they always break where the plastic and metal come together. J.B. Weld will vibrate away. I tried small pieces of metal and screws. But the cheap ass plastic is so thin plus the vibration it just breaks away.
Reinforce the back of the plastic with this before mounting the metal on. Go overkill on everything you do and it will hold up great. Thanks. mad Mike the hammer SPC
How much force can fiberglass stand? I have a plastic hood on a mini skid that has a crack almost 8 inches long right at the joint where the hinge meets the hood. Can it support the continuous opening and closing of the hood? Is there something else that I can use if fiberglass does not work?
Bimini if you use multiple layers like say 3 you will be fine and there is nothing stronger out there :)
great job! I have been at war with a cracked plastic bumper cover. I have used every epoxy available. Keeps coming apart after a while. Going to do fiberglass next but I have not seen the steel mesh anywhere?
The fiberglass will work like a charm for you if you look in the show more of the video description you’ll find the mash there my friend

I have a very small hole, the size of a needle point in the top of my radiator end tank. Do you think this will work to seal the radiator, with it’s hot, pressurized coolant? I’ve read to use “loctite epoxy weld and fiberglass cloth” what’s your opinion?
Adam Epps its worth a try as long as you give it plenty of time to cure, this method is what I would use
