Scotty Kilmer Thanks Scotty! Didn’t know about this one. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
FIX SOFT TOP WINDOW VIDEO PLEASE!!!
Thanks Scotty! I am gonna fix that damn Toyota visor as soon as i can figure out where to buy that 4th item on the list from. I already got the rest. 💪
#4 haha your videos are great, thanks
First off... Scotty is freak'in hilarious. Great video bud.
Now, this can be even cheaper: Baking Soda (NOT baking powder) and dollar store Super Glue. Simply and carefully bond the two parts together using conventional super glue. Be careful with alignment (a few practice dry runs is recommended), as super glue will bond instantly! Then, sprinkle baking soda along the break (seam), cleaning away any extra. Ideally, you want a thin 1 or 2mm line of baking soda running along the break (seam). Then, simply add a few drops of super glue along the baking soda line. Voila, instant white cement. You can file things smooth if you wish.
Can you please give us an example?
rubber and metal don't bond that well, but this kit comes with a white powder too that is to be used on metal, one could always try it.
Thanks for this tip Scotty, I ordered some from Amazon and it is great! My mom's Hyundai Tucsan center console broke and the stealer wanted $400+ for a new one. I was able to fix it in 2 minutes with this stuff!
Alternative faster and cheaper solution = Super Glue + Baking Soda for about a cost of $2 or $3. Some of you may want to try.
I just watched this video and wanted to buy/order Q-Bond, but then I scrolled to the bottom of this video and read the comments that Super Glue and Baking Soda will do the same job.
I went to a neighborhood dollar store and bought super glue and baking soda, and they did the same job for me. Because baking soda is white, the additional bonding is also white-like in color.
First glue the two things with super glue. And for additional bonding sprinkle the baking soda and spray super glue on it. P.S. Super glues are available in various brands. Any brand will work, according to me.
Thanks Scotty for the video.
if you don't want to use that stuff or buy it baking soda and regular super glue does the same thing basically
nah, its aluminum particals
ok mix some aluminum oxide into the baking soda
first....
Andy hoff Yea, the guys at the shop I work at swear by it, but everything I've seen them fix with it breaks again. I've had better luck with baking soda & super glue.
I must slightly disagree. The regular super glue you can buy in stores doesn't work so well for this application. You need the better stuff, not necessarily this brand, but the very thin kind if you're going to do this kind of thing with it. I prefer Bob Smith Industries thin for this kind of use, with baking soda. The BSI glue is a stronger glue to begin with, and is thin enough to penetrate the soda well. The thicker glues do not, so you get a hard surface that is soft on the inside.
It is black dyed baking soda and super glue.
Flip de boer I am sure it is but they took the idea and said it was there formula and started selling it
It's so painful to read when people use "THERE" instead of "THEIR"
and vice versa too...
I heard there it sounded like there and it was there is what I heard there I said it.
Have used Super G and baking soda for years. It works. If you need a small weld, place fiber string along the break, bam ! it's fixed.
This stuff works great I used it on my Toyota Supra headlight. Fixed the broken tab good as new!! Thanks Scotty!!
Did it hold up Kev
Scotty, You have one of the best channels out there. My wife hates it when I say "Scotty's video said". I appreciate your info on the glue, I'll be giving it a shot on my door panel.
nice for a change. Dry and cool
Great stuff for many things, but this is better for plastics
Yes, as long as it's thick plastic, the thin stuff will just keep cracking in other spots.
yes, same process, but I know this one works and the mixture is always perfect. So I use this
Thanks to you I just bought from Amazon some Q-bond. Shipping and handling to my country was half of the total price :P
Your videos are really fun to watch and good learning tools. Keep the good work and thank you Scotty!
I use this stuff all the time. It works by filling in the super glue and allowing it to build up a thick layer. It also dries the glue way faster than without it. It’s much less brittle than straight super glue, too. Baking soda does do basically the same thing, but i dont know personally if there is a difference in strength or overall performance. The Q-Bond kit is only $15 at my local napa and i still havent run out of my first bottle of the powder that i bought almost two years ago. For what it is i have been impressed. Of course it isnt as hard as steel, but it’s plenty hard and strong for any plastic. Pretty sure it’s harder than or as hard as any plastic out there. For a cheap, quick, and strong repair this is the best thing i’ve found.
I never comment on youtube video's, but.... I bought new tail lights, and the main plastic mounting tab broke off on one of them. I found this video, picked some up at Advanced Auto Parts and did just the same procedure as he shows here, and just as easy. It worked great and it's holding strong. Thanks!
that stuff looks amazing, abs plastic is normally a nightmare to glue together in the past ive used the soldering iron to melt broken plastic but the way this fills the gap looks very handy
Just found this video. Do you know how many years and DOLLARS I've spent looking for this!??! Thanks again Scotty.
Can't tell you how much money you've saved me in just the last year. Wish I'd found you before I made a few of my vehicle purchases. Lol
This is a great tip Scotty. I was using J B Weld for these applications. The only thing about the JB Weld is it can get messy. I'll have to try this next time.
yes, certainly worth a try.
Just bought it 2 days ago and Scotty you just showed me how to use it,cheers:'😁😁
A body guy showed Me a trick like this, but he used super glue he got at a hobby shop where You can get 1 Oz. bottles instead of little ones, and he used baking soda as the filler. It works great and dries fast.
Best of all, it's really cheap.
I use it all the time for that kind of stuff
Saved me a fortune. tyvm dude. :)
That stuff works great! I stopped using JB kwik when I got turned on to Q-bond.
OH YES YES!!! I knew there had to be something like this. Thank YOU
Hey Scotty greetings from Portugal. Great work on your channel, thanks mate. 👌
Dear Scotty,
I love you for this!
Thanks again for another great tip Scotty
Yeah, I think I may try that when I repair my front grille. Thanks for the reply! I'm looking forward to watching future videos!!
Keep the videos coming scotty!!!! Love them!!!
I bought this instead of spending $95 on a replacement part.. it worked! thanks!
Thanks Scotty, I enjoy all your videos. This q bond seems amazing, I have to try it one day. I already found a place that sells it.
yes, get a ball joint puller tool, there are special pullers for them.
Great video Scotty as always.
Great tip. Thank you.
Around here we have similar stuff called rapid fix, I havent tried it yet
they actually make kits for that, but blending the right color to match is the hard part. a dash cover is actually a better idea, many models are made that glue over the old dash.
This is an great product that I didn't even know about thanks Scotty your the man
Excellent job!
You are awesome Scotty. Thank you!
Great product and review. Just broke some fastener tabs on Odyssey panel.
type "fixing car brakes" in the search on my scotty kilmer channel opening page and watch the videos I have on fixing car brakes, there are quite a few
Ordered it, used it because of your video. Thank you
SCOTTY YOU JUST SAVED THE PLASTIC DOOR SILL PIECES ON MY 92 DAKOTA!
I have been brainstorming how to fix the cracked plastic pieces and I should have known you would have the answer! Seriously, there are no aftermarket replacements for these things. And junkyard parts are always beat.
Yes, I agree with the baking powder comments... It's a good video on how to fix the dash part but I'd rather paid 99 cents than 3, 4, or even 5 dollars or more on that product that works the same as baking powder and super glue You know how company's like to make that money... I use baking powder and super glue to fix and build up and sculpt a lot of things with it... It's great...
Thanks Scotty! Very useful information. I had never heard of that Q-Bond Adhesive before this video. I'm going to look into getting some. Heck, I have at least 3 jobs that come to mind real quick. I must have old stuff. :)
exactly what I need thank you sir!
Thanks for the support!
You are a really genius Scotty 👍
This was another great tip. Do you have any thoughts about fixing cracks in the top of dashes to look like new?
helpful information, thank you for sharing !!!
yes, if it has small holes
Damn I’m glad I found you! This is the best channel EVER!!!
Thank you Scotty!
I don't need this right now for my car (although I wish I knew about this a few years ago), but I still plan on using it on some other plastic. Thank you!
Thanks for all the hints Scotty
worn out carburetor mainly, but do check the fuel pump also.
Good info on the Q-Bond
awesome tip, thanks scotty!
Really good idea, love your tips.
8 yrs old and still so helpful!
I just use the gloves and throw em away when using solvents, I use the blue gloves that come in a box of 50 then
I've also used that gray epoxy putty stuff to fix some plastics and metal as well, like a broken dash panel bezel around a car stereo. The beauty about the putty is that you can mold it any shape you want in order to fill in gaps for example, and it gives you some time to work it to shape and make it look oem. You will usually find this stuff on display at the counter of an autoparts store where they took two washers or pennies and stuck them together in a blob at an angle to demonstrate its strength. Try breaking that stuff! The epoxy putty and qbond would make an excellent tag team.
Thank you so much this really helped me 💛
Hey thanks for the heads up on that stuff.
Wow i had no idea. Thanks for sharing
yes, but often you can plastic weld bumpers if enough is left to work with. That's how the pros do it
God bless you scotty kilmer.
that is clever stuff, thank you scottykilmer
This is great, wish 8 came across this info sooner. I hope to use this for the housing on my driver side mirror.
That stuffs amazing I've been using it for years im a diesel mechanic
awesome stuff mate, thanks!
Some of the Greatest! videos on CZcams! Thanks to you, I've saved myself hundreds if not thousands of dollars! Thank you thank you thank you!
yes, once dry it is.
yes, but realize if a handle cracks, it's weak, and will break in other places over time again and again. But these welds won't break
jb weld is also good, but this isn't epoxy, they have different uses in most cases.
Thanks. This will save me on new (or junk) parts the next time something breaks.
61 deg here in dallas hows the weather down south??
Hi scotty, thanks for this amazing tip.regards.
You did it again scotty
yes, in some instances it is.
love your vids Scotty!
Great idea scotty
good info any vids for repainting plastic interior parts like faded door handles
yes, then you use the gray powder the kit comes with
Scotty you just saved my a$$! Dude is an American icon IMO…
I love your videos. keep up the good work.
Love this!
Very nice video. I didn't know stuff like this exists. Awesome.
Thank you scotty!!!!
Can't wait to get some... i keep a collection of all kinds of glues, epoxies, tapes etc... weird fascination with the stuff.
Love it! Thank you
I use JB Weld but I'm gonna have to check this stuff out!
Watched a long time ago and just had to use it. New truck had a bracket broke after someone back into it and drove off. My local Canadian tire in Alberta carried it. Q-bond worked great for me
Good job mate! 👍
There was a recall on that vehicle, and I know because my coworker has one and has to do with the brakes. I'd follow Scotty's advice anyway, because he's never steered me wrong.
Well done.
Thanks.
That's awesome! Does it also work on metal?
will have to try this stuff....
As usual, you ROCK!
