Best Glue For Glueing Dash Plastic Back Together??? Broke some plastic tabs off, need to glue them back on. Whats the best glue to use guys? The old airplane model type glue or what? Thanks
If the parts you cracked are polypropelene SEM "problem plastic" repair is theee best and really the only thing that will hold long term . If its ABS plastic , the plastic weld epoxy you can get at ur local auto parts store is perfect and will make a permenant bond . The epoxy will work on polypropelene but the bond wont be that strong and will eventually re-break ....and thats the case with virtually all adhesives regarding poly no matter how buff they are .
Heres a link to the SEM stuff . Its a little pricey for the small things you need , but figured Id mention anyways . Good really for any F-body owner to have around as most of the panels in the car are polypropylene and these cars are getting old .

FYI , all the bezels( radio, vents , lock/window ect. ) in the interior including the door handle surrounds are ABS . The center console and top piece is also ABS . All the kick panels , sail panels , rear hatch trim , the panel on the side of the seat with the power seat switches are polypropylene .
