Broken tail light
by OZBUILDER Fri 03 Apr 2009, 3:28 pm
Someone plz help. I started a new project last night and while going through the parts i found that one Tail light is broken.
Its moulded at a 90 degree angle and its broken right in the corner, What i was thinking of doing was using some clear red paint to
glue it back together as its moulded in clear red already. Any do's or donts would be helpful.

Main thing I can suggest is trying Clear Araldite, maybe then give it a fine sand and polish it up 
What kit is it? as maybe someone has a tailight they could send you.

Thanks Paul, its abit hard to sand and polish as it has lines moulded into it. The kit is a 67' Chevelle SS 396, Its a revell california wheels kit.
