Got myself an older Thule cargo box for either the roof rack or a trailer. There is a crack near one of the attachment points. I want to fix that before using it.
It seems like the material might be ABS, but not positive.
Anybody has experience with fixing those?
Somebody mentioned ABS patch kits from the hardware store but not sure what those are and how well they work.
I imagine some sort of epoxy patch might possibly work too but maybe too rigid since I think these boxes are flexing a fair amount.
I'd put some sort of metal plate or mesh in there as reinforcement too.
Or fiberglass? but that's also pretty rigid I think.
The wall is pretty smooth and not sure how well compound would attach to it.
The stitching kits for stud guns are cool but I don't have a stud gun and I think the material is way too thin.
Thoughts?
