Do I or don't I...........?  Group: Members Posts: 5,899 Joined: 24-March 06 From: SE PA, near Philly Member No.: 5,765 Region Association: North East States  |
I've been looking for a proper rain tray for my '72 for 3 years now. My original is cracked beyond repair (which I attempted with epoxy - lasted maybe 2 weeks).
I was told some time ago that they used some sort of specialized moulded plastic for these things, and that no glue, bondo, etc. would adhere (could be bogus, but don't know). Has ANYONE had any success in rebonding small cracks (1/2-1") in these things? Pat |
