Repairing / Patching up a ABS plastic Bodykit.

Post by deep1ca » Sun Jul 22, 2007 7:48 am

Hi guys.

I was wondering if its possible to use fiberglass or bondo to patch cracks or holes and stuff on a bumper made out of ABS material.

If not, how/what would you use to patch up cracks and stuff on a ABS bumper?

Thanks.

if i knew what abs material was id help you but my uncle showed me some good stuff called like quick sand its blue and looks kinda like toothpaste and comes in a metal can that might work.we used this stuff on my tails and they came out really nice..so you can try to find it but im not sure of the name all i know is it is blue and dries super fast and better than bondo..:)

yea you can use fiberglass to patch cracks in abs... Take a look at my project log on the civic lip I modified to fit my front bumper... Just make sure you sand it down a bit and it should be fine...
