Can someone recommend a super adhesive for plastics please.
thank you
thank you
2 types I have found, either a solvent weld based on DiMethylAcrylate (depending on the plastic) or superglue with an activator. You can get Mitre Adhesive from Screwfix which does the job.
However, what is it for, what material, and how good does it need to be?
Cyanoacrylate superglues are not very good on plastics unless you use an activator.

so you know where you screw the screw into the plastic. the long shaft has snapped off and i need to glue it back on in order to screw the remote together.

Araldite?
LOL
Don't get me wrong, it's amazing, but surely OTT?
Then again, if you are glueing, then screwing something, it might be worth it.

Cyanoacrylate is not suitable for some plastics, i get the impression a remote holder would use such a plastic.
All that would happen is the glossy finish would be melted away.
Alradite have a superglue variant, that should do the job just fine.
