As someone who has remanufactured plastic automobile bumpers professionally since 1990, I can absolutely tell you this is not the correct way to repair a plastic part. I won't even go into the melting of the styrofoam as a filler for the hole. The correct way would be to cut a piece of plastic to match the hole you cut, glue it in place, bevel out the seams and use a plastic welding rod to fill in the bevels then sand the weld down flush. You can use wire mesh for reinforcement if you like. Then a plastic body filler should be used on the outside. Sand smooth, Prime and paint
Hola Gaus, buenas noches. ¿Como que "nadie lo cree"? Vos nos lo mostraste y lo mostraste muy bien. Claro que lo creemos. Te mandaste un gran trabajo y a muy bajo costo. Muchas gracias por el consejo. Muy buen video. Me gusto mucho. Muchas gracias por registrarlo todo y compartirlo con todos nosotros. Muy buen trabajo. Segui adelante. Gracias Gaus.
Zur Kenntnis der Materialien bzw. Chemikalien gehört aber auch, darauf hinzuweisen, dass Xylol schon bei leichtem Einatmen oder Hautkontakt hochgradig krebserregend ist (Leukämie !!!) . Ohne diesen Hinweis ist so eine Anleitung kriminell!
Fixed my beloved old toaster with baking soda and superglue. The handle broke off,so I put her on her back,and sprinkled baking soda on the stub inside the slot,and then put what was left of the handle in the baking soda,and dripped superglue into the soda,and the handle is now glued rock solid to the stub.
I believe you will be very happy after fixing your oven handle. The combination of super glue and baking soda creates a very strong bond. In addition to baking soda, you can replace it with styrofoam, sawdust, pencil charcoal powder, it is also very strong. Have a good day!
@@GausDIY I should mention this was the second repair. I originally used epoxy,and that worked well. The repair failed because the plastic of the toaster handle failed,not the epoxy! Hope the same failure doesn't happen with my latest repair!
@@GausDIY My first experience with superglue and baking soda was about a year ago. I dropped my fav hard plastic hairbrush in the sink,and it broke in two. I could not find a similar brush online. Used the baking soda superglue method,and the resulting repair is unbelievably hard,although I was going to sand down the repair,but have been too lazy to do it so far.
@@GausDIY Die Stoßfänger könnten aus PVC sein. Daher lassen sie sich auch schweißen und mit Hilfe von Wärme formen. Wenn man ds gleiche Material verwendet, könnte man ein sauberes Stück an der Bruckstelle ausscheiden und ein neues Stück einschweißen. Sowas geht recht gut, wie man mit dem Lötkolben schon gesehen hat. Hinterfüttern würde ich die Bruchstelle, damit die Nähte gestützt werden. Der Rest ist schleifen, spachteln , schleifen...
I don't believe the point is about easier more than cost-effective. It's about saving money, are those supplies. You speak of cheaper than Styrofoam.? I can't believe that how many people watch these kinds of videos and misunderstand the point about saving money
The sanding without a block stopped the video i tried the UA-cam solutions with styrofoam but nothing really works. So i doubt this works the metal mash is very good the soldering of the plastic is good .
This is a genius hack! I tried it on my own bumper, and it worked like magic. Who needs to spend hundreds at the body shop when you can do this at home? Thanks for sharing!
@@carmium This is in case you are doing a temporary repair if you are far from a repair shop - Specialized products for professional bumper repair are better
I was a little confused when you melted the styrofoam with xylene. I didn't know if you were showing us how to fix a plastic bumper, or how to make C4.😂
You could have done the same with bondo but for the lige of God use a frigging polymer trowl, you don't useba utility knife blade to apply your filler and feather it out, use a proper putty trowl!
too complicated, just get a screwdriver.. go around the neighborhood for a car with the same model and color, take the bumper out. put on new bumper on your car. finished.
Everyone on here is providing other ways of doing this but nobody is saying why you shouldn't do it this way. This is by far the cheapest way, even if it may be more of a hassle in the long run than other methods of plastic repair; however, anyone could do this, and likely with trash they have around the house. I couldn't think of a reason as to why this would be a bad idea. At least you're technically recycling waste Styrofoam!
Il solvente usato è pericoloso per l’uomo, la manipolazione deve essere eseguita con le opportune protezioni, fare questi lavori vuol dire ignorare i rischi connessi con gli stessi
I’ll bet that’s what they do. That’s not fixing it, it’s like comparing drywall to bricks. It just can’t be save. I mean it’s styrofoam for crying out loud. No matter how much you pack it is still easy to break.
So in this video you showed us that you don’t know how to use Bondo you don’t know how to use spot putty. You don’t know how to use a sander and you don’t know how to spray paint by the looks of the runs.
Así que contrataré a un experto en "ordenes" para que reorganice todo para que ya no quede desordenado. jaja, solo estoy bromeando, me alegra recibir tus comentarios. Deseándote un feliz y alegre nuevo día.

Wer ein Loch so repariert zieht sich die Hose wahrscheinlich auch mit 'ner Kneifzange an. Beste Methode: austauschen mit Neuteil. Zweitbeste Methode: Karosseriespachtelmasse. Mit hochgiftigem Xylen rumzuspielen ist ziemlich dumm.
@@GausDIY Warum dann kein Hinweis im Video auf die extreme Giftigkeit des verwendeten hochgradig (Leukämie-) krebserregenden Xylols. Es müsste auch eine Kohlefilter-Maske sein!
That is not the correct way to Hand saying anything, because the uneven pressure between each finger can leave lines in the body work you have to go across your hands, your fingers from side to side with your hand. Otherwise, you may leave ripples in the bodywork, and I would be more than visible after a shiny and painted.

Hi skilled worker, thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. thanks a lot.
Well....this is the chinesium way😊
Or throw some cloth and Bondo on that bad boy and go from there. 😂
The method he used is not the one who would use, but his way also works; its just that it is an alternative to yours.
When I was a child in the 60s we used to do stuff like this. Where on gods green earth is this still being done?
What a genius!!!!! Thanks for the tutorial.
Glad it was helpful! Good Day!
Igual yo empastaria para darle mas terminación, aun así el tip para reparar, está muy bueno.

Thank you for your experiment and another way to fix a damaged bumper. Always good to have alternative solutions to fix things. Looks like fun too :-)
Glad to help! Have a good day Friend!
Hi , good working and arrived super finishing . Good luck .👏👏👏👏
Thank you very much
Complimenti per avermi fatto conoscere una tecnica molto versatile fai da te per risolvere il problema 😊grazie
Way to complicated. Tape the backside. Baking soda and Super glue on the topside. When hard, simply sand & paint. Example on the internet, UA-cam..
Thanks, I also repaired my bumper with baking soda and super glue, it worked great. This video I wanted to try a new method.
There’s more than one way to Antarctica 👍
When you know you know👍
Me just fibreglass it.
You could just fill it with polyester putty containing glass fibres. It would be super strong with no need of a mesh at all.
Thank for your tips!
Cosa mi consigli invece per una vaschetta liquido di raffreddamento auto che ha una piccola crepa ?
@@mario1788So che esiste un adesivo una colla "per forni" resistente anche alle alte temperature. Proverei quella ( cercala in un brico center)
Awesome. But, I would love to see how you fixed the paint run and scaling from spraying to close and fast.
Knowing the materials, chemicals, the process and mostly patience.
Awesome fix from start to finish.
GOD BLESS 🙏✌️
Thank you! Cheers!

Always use a sanding block to support the sandpaper, otherwise you risk creating a depression in the work from your finger tips.
Thank you very much, I also often use flat wood for sanding. But sometimes I forget.
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks for watching!
Great! Thank you :)
Thank you too!
Watching from south Africa
Thanks for watching!
This guy approves of his work.
Just use epoxy or polyester resin with fibreglass.
Good tip! Thank You!
That sounds a lot easier
Although for me i would prefer a plastic patch with no chemical hazards but props for you trying to do something beneficial out there 👏
Thank You! Have a good day!
Excellent!
Many thanks! ❤️❤️
La masilla acrilica con catalizador es mucho más efectiva.
Excelente. Genial. Saludo desde Paraguay
Thank You! Nice to meet you!
Tried to fixed the soles of my shoes with banana skins, it never worked but you have to except the odd slip up
You can do the same thing so much easier using Plastic/metal Auto Body Filler, also sands and polishes well for a perfect finish.

As long as it works, does it matter how it is done?

Thank you!

Que fácil es todo en un trozo de plástico donde no importa si queda bien o mal.
Wow amazing ideas 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much 😊
Awesome
Thank!
この素材を金属（鉄製や銅製）など数種類で見せて頂きたい！…
I prefer the repair with instant noodles 😆
What was the liquid for the styrofoam . We use bondo over here but this is interesting . I don’t always want it to use bondo . Mondo beyondo
Many liquids can dissolve foam: super glue, acetone, gasoline, paint thinner...etc. Thank!
Even the slightest angle of the cut plastic can help hold its place
I like the idea of the mesh but would use a,proper filler rather than the dodgy deal with melted polystyrene
It's a little more complicated than nessicery, but the rattle can paint job I can't believe it matched up that well.
Those are the basic paint colors.
Si hechas secante, catalizador de pintura 🎨, no necesitas hachar lotite,.
I feel like a hear a jungle in the background 🎉
There are many birds and trees around my workplace. There are also chickens.
If you covered the rectangle hole with the tape lengthways you could have covered it with 1 piece of tape.
Yw! 🙏🏾
Bondo quickset, 10 times easier and less volatile. This is like toothpaste for drywall holes.
Que bueno amigo
Thank you!
Cool

Es mucho mas rapido y facil hacerlo con fibra de vidrio
La fibra de vidrio está especializada.

Ridiculamente complicado. Sin cortar , primero lijas, después encintas, enparchas cv on un pegamento en epoxi y despues lijas.😮
Thank you for your sharing!
very good 🎉
Could have grinded the edges in both sides around and and fiber glassed it, another way would be hot stable a piece of plastic and then do body work
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. There are many different ways to repair a plastic bumper.
@ experienced auto body btw I already know
Hat doch sehr gut geklappt 👍1
Thank!
They used to make this stuff called Bondo
It is a specialized material for repairing car bumpers.
They still do.
There's other products out there that are made for fixing plastic bumpers it makes it way easier than what this person just did.
Yes, but the question is, will it make it cheaper? That's the point of the video idiot to save money
I still think Bondo would be the easiest once you get the whole plugged.
Quelles sont les proportions de dosage entre le xylène et polystyrène ?
juste selon la réalité
👍
You should just put sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and soak it with superglue.
Thank! It's Good way!
You could have done the same with bondo but for the lige of God use a frigging polymer trowl, you don't useba utility knife blade to apply your filler and feather it out, use a proper putty trowl!
Thank you so much!!
素晴らしい！ただ少し気になったのはサンディングの際には「当て木」した方が良いです。
共有してくれてありがとう！より良い結果が得られるよう、あなたの方法をすぐに試してみます。

What a crazy idea .fiber glass fiber would be better
No! It's way easier to just melt plastic into the hole once it is taped on reverse side! Or use baking soda and superglue ~
Thank for your tips! Have a good day!
Ok mais tu as vu tous ce qu'il faut.Tu as plus vite fait d'acheter un peu de résine d'epoxy et 10 cm de toile ça va te revenir moins cher✌😂

Chinese cars, what do you expect…
9:29 on the video. Probably took him an hour. Probably take me 8 hours.
Why not just do 1 strip of the aluminum foil tape lengthwise
There should be spider cracks that need to be addressed
I could be wrong but it looks like your using the wrong side of the sandpaper.
How does that Xylene stuff work on bones? (Asking for a friend)🙄
Store just around the corner, an it takes you 3hrs there and back. Do you understand what im saying?
use bondo
Why not do the front same way
Hmm, wouldn't it have been easier to use a hot glue gun and cable ties instead of the styrene?
Depending on the tools you have available, these two plastic repair methods are quite simple and easy to perform. Thank You!
How about some audio....I lost him at the mesh
Who is the music in your video?
That is music from youtube library

No sanding block and you can not make it level
I'll leave the science to JB Weld...
This seems a slow, uneccesary process, given there are quicker and easier known ways to achieve the fix. Looks good all the same
