Default Need a plastic epoxy!!!

I spent the day fabbing up a plate to put into my overhead console for 2 gauges. I need some advice on a good 2-part plastic epoxy. I have no idea what to get. Has anybody here used a certain kind with success??? Let me know.

I like JB Weld if that's the kind of 2 part stuff you're talking about. Its strong as hell and holds up good.

If you need a clear epoxy, napa makes a clear 2 part self mixing epoxy for $5. Dries clear and is safe for plastic...i use it to re-attach my clear corners on my OBS when i had it.

I used to sell some Plastic-Weld when I worked at Advance Auto. It was the best stuff I found...dries clear, $3.49. People used to seal cracks in the plastic end caps of their radiators with it. Good for just about anything though!
