Default ABS repair

wrote in message
oups.com...
I have a 1975 Snark Sunflower. It has an ABS shell over the styrofoam.
I need to repair the shell -- it has cracks in it, and nothing's
missing. Other than duct tape and paint, what's a good idea? Isn't
there a chemical I can use to weld it back together?

Thanks.

Look at http://www.urethanesupply.com/ for ideas. Also, check your local Pep
Boys or other car parts retailer for an epoxy-based two-part repair goop for
plastic car bumpers. It retails for about $6, is very easy to use, and seems
to work very well (on bumpers, maybe on boats as well.)
