 Broken Vinyl Toy.. Best Glue recomendations?? Hi there,
Anyone have any tips for sticking vinyl back together?
Any special glue recomendations?
It has to be super strong to stick the hand back on my BunnyDuck, which has to hold a rather large suppot pole.
Cheers,
Ben

Try Zap a Gap, it's made for vinyl.

Clean the surfaces near the spot where you're gluing when using any kind of CA glue though. The fumes will "haze" any dirt/oil/finger prints.

I have had good luck with Superglue GEL. Make sure it is the GEL type, and not the regular Superglue.

Yup, Zap a gap.
There's 3 different viscosities.
Pink -watery
Green-thick
Yellow-Thicker
I use the green on everything that needs gluing.

Zap a Gap is just a brand name. I'm sure any hobby shop will have Cyanoacrylate glue. It's very common for remote controlled car/plane applications.
