Nice job fellas. You can buy some Acetone and melt the plastic into a paste to use as a glue and filler, a little messy but works really well if you don't have a plastic welder.

I still have a few to do....

Holy Crap.. I wish I had all those!! Where do you buy your acetone?? [MENTION=15]Sandman[/MENTION]; It will probably be easier for me to make the paste/filler of plastic to fill the lower spots I have, rather than use the soldering iron to build it up...

About half of the fascias in the picture aren't repairable, holes in the textured sections, cracked and broken off sections.

Acetone is available from Bunnings in the paint section but any hardware or paint store should have it. It is used in fibre glassing.

Use a rasp to shred up the plastic into a glass jar or bowl, add small amounts of acetone and mix until you get the desired consistancy. The paste can be used as a glue and filler.
