Since alot of you guys do your own work, what do you recommend . Especially for strength and managability while repairing boo boos. Even as far as fumes go if I do it in my basement with kids home. All replies appreciated.

 

Plastic Weld from Permatex or similar. There's a thread about it somewhere if you want another couple of people's opinion.
I've repaired cracked fairings including a broken off fairing support stud. Fumes are a little bit of a problem, but not prohibitive

 

thanx, but I was really lookin for was what you use for patching scratches and small holes on the fairings theselves. Will the fiberglass bondo work on plastic or is there something better.

 

As far as i know they will work on plastic and they work well

plastic weld epoxy, sand down area apply a few coats of this stuff, let it sit, and sand...looks like new, i did it to my rear cowl

 

any perticular brand or will it be at walmart with the other glues.

 

go to autozone, look for a black epoxy container...looks like a big syringe (sp?) PLASTICWELD

 

Cool thanx.

 

yup, no problem...read the directions and you will be fine, it works great, just make sure after you do the final sand, you primer before paint...it will show through
