Repair of Plastic "Poly" Components
Do not try to repair deep gouges. Plastic components with deep gouges should be replaced. Minor
surface damage to plastic components such as nicks or graffiti can be repaired as follows:
●
Lightly sand surface needing to be repaired.
●
Use a heat gun to remove light sanding scratches and to help return plastic to original surface
condition. Additional directions may be included with the purchase of a heat gun.- It may be important
to practice your plastic repair technique on a hidden surface of the component you wish to repair.
(i.e. the under side of a slide)
Notes:
(A)
Heat guns are available through most hardware stores.
(B) ln most cases damaged plastic cannot be repaired to its original condition.
