Does this glue / method work on a plastic bumper dent
2000867
good question, I have not used it, thinking not, since plastic does not bounce back the same way as metal.

The Pops A Dent works very well on shallow dents in metal but I doubt if would be strong enough for the heavy plastic bumper. I had to do repeat "pulls" to get a 6 inch long dent out of my front fender. I would use it again for metal if I needed to remove another dent without damaging the paint.

Theoretically it works on any glossy paint, like cars, whether metal or plastic. However, I was not able to get my dents out because the glue was not strong enough to hold under the pressure of being pulled up when the handle is turned. A broom stick worked for me like wonders (dent was on the hood).

Gluing plastic is always questionable. It might work - or might not, depending on the type of plastic you are trying to glue. Devcon makes a special blend just for plastic but it's not 100% reliable either. Good luck.

yes,I used testors glue for plastic carefully applied with a round toothpick. with skill and thought the engines can be made to rotate from horozontial to vertical with the use of a couple of small pusher springs and stay in any position.

That's a hard one to answer. I've played around with the "slippery-bendy" type plastic that they use for things like ATV fenders and recycling bins and that is probably not the type of plastic that this would repair. I would look for some kind of plastic repair kit or plastic "welding" kit that involves a hot iron for that repair. I used the fiberglass repair kit on an old Jeep CJ-7 hard-top and it worked better than I could have imagined. After the patch cured, I sanded the edges smooth and painted it. No leaks and it takes the vibrations fine. Sorry that I couldn't be more direct with the answer for you. Good luck. That's a hard one to answer.

It is good for plastic bumpers. For metal I would recommend a stronger drill bit.

I used it to weld a plexiglass panel to a vinyl convertible top after the glass panel broke. It worked perfectly! Just prep the panel with the primer and be prepared to hold it in place for about 30 minutes till the epoxy sets up. Oh yeh,,, and WEAR RUBBER GLOVES, THIS STUFF IS MESSY!!!

Deep scratch is relative. As long as the scratch has not cut completely through the bumper, the glazing compound should work fine. File down all high spots. Use an auto putty spreader. Use thin multiple applications as opposed to a single application. Wet sand.

I didn't use this glue for that in particular, but I used it to glue together a broken piece of a plastic phone case and it bonded the broken part back together. I would think it would be ideal for that!

The glue remover (a.k.a. rubbing alcohol) easily removes the glue from a painted surface. Try some rubbing alcohol on the fridge to make sure it doesn't affect the finish in an unwanted way. If it doesn't, you should have good luck with this item. It make take multiple attempts depending on the size and severity of the dent. Patience seems to be pretty important when using this on a car.

I would guess it should be effective. I have used the glue to seal the plastic base of my car's antenna. The purpose was served greatly.

I would not recommend this product for that purpose. It would be best to use a silicone based adhesive. If you go to an automotive parts store, they should have a good glue for this application.

It can be used only on painted bumpers. It will stain the black plastic bumpers forever.

I would not recommend this for fixing a plastic PC case. This does have a strong hold but it is meant for thermal applications. A standard plastic epoxy would work best for your situation.

HI There, I had a huge dent on my car, I just wanted to try this tool but it didn't work. However, it seems like a decent tool which would probably fix smaller dents. I hope this helps. Thank you.

If surrounding surface is flat...it might. Certainly worth a try. If not, just return it to Amazon! Worked like a charm for big dent in my car door (reduced it by 90%). If you can establish suction the dent is gone (again, flat surface around dent is key).
