    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.

  • @TheKurgan1970
    @TheKurgan1970 Před 8 lety +126

    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.

    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!

    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!

    This stuff works great I used it on my Toyota Supra headlight. Fixed the broken tab good as new!! Thanks Scotty!!

  • @aurtisanminer2827
    @aurtisanminer2827 Před 6 lety +1

    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!

    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

  • @scottykilmer
    @scottykilmer  Před 11 lety +5

    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.

  • @anocri
    @anocri Před 8 lety +44

    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.

      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.

    • @tootall5559
      @tootall5559 Před 6 lety +5

      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.

    @thebestofall007 Před 9 lety

    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.
