JB WELD 8237UK JB8237 Plastic Weld Fast-Setting Off White Multi Purpose Reinforced Epoxy Putty, 57 G

Works well, not keen on the smell but it does work and provides a strong bond

I bought this for my husband to repair the interior car door handle on the driver side. The part he needed was hard to find and to take the car to be repaired would cost hundreds, this was decided on as a temporary solution. Next day delivery, inexpensive and easy to use, we can’t complain. It says you need protective gloves and clothes (but how much less are you going to make?). He tried gloves but it was easier to use bare handed - be quick to wash the putty off afterwards. He just kneaded the putty and smoothed a very small amount over the cracked plastic and held the handle in place for a couple of minutes. It cured after about 20 minutes. A few days of use in and out the car and the handle seems to be holding up. We may not need to get the spare part after all.

Great value for money! Really easy to use! Great glue strength!

Easy to use epoxy in very controllable quantity

I wanted to repair a pinhole leak in a Spear & Jackson weedkiller sprayer - the kind that gets pumped up to pressure. Sadly the repair failed immediately. I had caked quite a lot of this stuff onto the leak area, I mixed it up thoroughly, I pounded it down, it set - rock hard... I left it even longer to fully cure... and then filled the container with water. All good. I then started to pump to pressurise it and within seconds liquid was jetting out again. The title of this review is deliberately "my repair failed"... because I accept it might be something I didn't do right. But the takeaway point is that it didn't work for me - the liquid seemed to find its way out underneath the hardened putty and then just exited in a slightly different location. I am now debating whether to give it a second go... but soon I'll have a container that is more putty than container!

So a really nice person kicked off the door mirror on my car (Nissan) causing it to hang by a few wires. The plastic mounting bracket had been snapped completely. According to Nissan, my only option was a complete new mirror at around £300. Or was it? With only a few centimetres of 'surface' I wanted to try sticking the mirror casing back onto the mount. But the mirror is heavy - it has a camera and electric motors behind the glass and I thought it would be too heavy to stay stuck with such limited surface area, particularly when the car would be bouncing on roads, driven at speed on motorways etc. So I found this product and tried it before spending big money. Nothing to lose, right? I used the putty on both edges, held it together for maybe 10 minutes and it bonded. So far so good. I then left the whole thing for 2 days (I know you don't have to leave it that long, but I didn't need the car) before screwing it all back together. I sanded and painted over the white/grey residue (black) and hoped for the best. I took it for a short test drive, fully expecting the mirror to fall over when I hit the first bump. That was 2 months ago. Absolutely perfect. Solid as a rock. Great product. And saved me £300.

I bought this to patch up a broken shower waste pipe and there is now a drip rather than deluge of suds. It mixes easily but is quite messy to use and there's a limited window before it will start sticking to itself on your fingers so keep a rag nearby to clean your hands. Once smoothed out it sets quickly and will harden overnight. I used some cableties to keep it in place. Not the perfect solution, but good enough until the pipe can be replaced.

Total waste of time. I mixed it as per directions and put it on thick. I then left it 48 hours and it was still soft and came off when I was getting ready to sand.

I've used this J-B Weld PlasticWeld epoxy putty a few times around the house, and it holds up pretty nicely. it's handy for repairing my plastic garden tools and small cracks in the kayak. the application is easy, and it dries pretty quickly. glad i have it in my toolbox for quick fixes during projects or while camping 🛠️. definitely a good addition to my repair supplies!

I wanted to thank you for resending the above order. I received the package in good order. Thank you very much for the excellent service. Goede aftersales contact met verkoper, eerste pakketje was zoek geraakt waarna verkoper me een direct een nieuwe heeft toegestuurd. Prima service van die bedrijf.

It hardened and becomes part of the broken material. Used on my cracked luggage. Works perfectly.

Expired and not working
