Posted January 5, 201015 yr Hi all, Happy New Year! Mid last year I got hold of a plastic enduro tank which had had a couple of holes/cracks plastic welded. They were leaking when I got it and I started patching with a soldering iron and bits of plastic. Looks to work well for two leaks but one has been a pest to stop. Anyone got any tricks of the trade that might help? Ta, Gordo
January 6, 201015 yr Hi gordo, there are not any easy tricks of the trade just experience. I do plastic welding as a business now, i could give it a go if you want ? Dont worry, just a couple of coins for a fellow yam owner !! p.m me if it's worth posting over, Jake.
January 7, 201015 yr You could try Q-Bond, have a look in your local motorfactors, the kit comes with 2 powders, grey for aluminium and black for plastics. Its meant o stick anything to anything and oil resistant, not 100% sure for petrol thou but its worth a try, its about £12 quid a kit.
January 8, 201015 yr Author Thanks guys, I'll give it a go and see what happens. It's getting close to going into the recycling bin.......
