Hello folks, anyone know of a glue that will work on a car bumper like the PVC cement glue.
This cement glue is specifically made for PVC; when applied, it tend to start melting the surface
until the other PVC part is slid into it. It melt both contact areas to become one material.
It stays put . . . the only way out is to cut it.

In the case of the bumper, I would have another bumper material (on the inside for repairs).

Thanks.

Thanks for all the info here.
I got the plastic welding kit (iron, plastic strips, gauze) with YouTube, I got it done.
Now, I need to file the area up and paint. Will find a way to texture the surface to look much like the original.

Where can I get a touch-up paint for the 2001 XC70 bumper?

Thanks.
