That’s a bit beyond repair. I would say that is refurbishing and nearly remanufacturing it. Amazing how good that looks. I have 2 headlights each with one broken tab. I have a hot iron, but no hot air. I do have other headlights to use as material, so it will at least match. I am thinking about getting hot air…can also use hot air for solder reflow, so yeah. Awesome job, great video

Thanks! Yes, rebuilding a tab like this definitely takes some skill. This video was just to show it is possible. Repairing a crack when you have the broken pieces is much easier than this. If you have any questions about the repair you will be doing, you can give us a call and we can give you some guidelines.

@@polyvance very nice. I sure appreciate the offer. I have some material to practice with that is same as the headlights I plan to fix (ABS), so I am going to practice until I have the confidence to do it and do it right. I have a hot air reflow machine for soldering, I am going to try to adapt it for plastic welding. I have a plastic welding iron and a hot stapler or whatever they are called, so I will do my best to make mine as good as the headlight in the video.

It is polypropylene with some additional material TD 20% >PP-TD20
@polyvance
@polyvance 2 жыл бұрын
The TD20 is a talc filler that has been added. So with PP-TD20, you've got a polypropylene with 20% talc filler. The talc filler makes the plastic brittle, which causes it to break cleanly. Broken tabs normally fit back on the part very tightly. Check out the section between 1:55 and 2:15 in this video to see an example = kzfaq.info/get/bejne/nNJ-oMWJ1bvVqmw.html

That’s so good. Mine looks like a kindergartener high on glue did it. It’s awful. I have the gun style. Heats staples and irons plastic. In general what style is best? Most repairs would be automotive.
