Where is everyone #5

It's a metton hood, some kind of acrylic plastic.

 

Are you off of Market St by the Anheuser Busch plant? Or on the other side of the 610?

 

Metton is not weldable. Ashland Valvoline make a plyobond that is used to do repairs.

I'm not far from the anheuser busch plant. I'm on the north/east side of 610 on Mcarty st.

 

hey @SAR
did you know that 1X6 tongue and groove weathered barnwood sells for $1.00 per linear foot to city folk.

 

Ok I'm done with Bay area traffic.

 

Ahhhh, yeah that’s a #### hole.

Spent my first overnight in a pipe yard up that way. Frontier tube.

Will never forget that crap.

 

Not from 04 and newer. That dang plastic composite. Saw, good luck my 06 did the same did the plastic weld like that lasted one month !

 

Mine is an '04. Going to give it a try and see, it's not like I have anything to lose by trying it.

I wonder if it would help if after welding it if I installed something with epoxy on the backside to stiffen it up. I don't know... we'll see.

 

I talked with engineers at both the company that makes Metton and Ashland, they were very helpful about bonding. The stuff they suggested was shown below, this has a 10 minute window to work with, they have other formulas with up to 30 minute work time.
