I broke the pins off a badge, is there anything that can be done other than sticking it back on and if not what glue?, araldite ?loctite ?

how thick's the badge Mick? you could drill where the pins were and push stainless roll pins in or stick it on with some trim tape?

Agree
If you do have to stick it, get some proper w/proof double sided tape.

They stopped fixing them on with pins two decades ago. Use the correct double sided tape and it will actually be fixed stronger than with the pins and not a potential rust issue either.

Tiger seal in very small amounts nobody will be able to nick them after either then

Top tip



Mix Baking soda with super glue

Remeber where you heard it first



When added to baking soda (sodium bicarbonate), cyanoacrylate glue forms a hard, lightweight filler/adhesive (baking soda is first used to fill a gap then the adhesive is dropped onto the baking soda). This works well with porous materials that the glue does not work well with alone. This method is sometimes used by aircraft modelers to assemble or repair polystyrene foam parts. It is also used to repair small nicks in the leading edge of composite propeller blades on light aircraft. Note that the reaction between cyanoacrylate and baking soda is very exothermic (heat-producing) and also produces noxious vapors.

Sounds like what I have been looking for to fill gaps on my SR-71 model.

Thanks, it's a reasonably large R/T emblem that goes on the rear quarter, you couldn't drill it, it's too thin, so will have to be glued, or maybe use the double sided tape. I cant imagine that to be very strong, but what do i know.

It is Mick. If you use the correct stuff. All the badges on my Challenger were fixed with it. As are all the badges on my Vette. And the number plates. Very strong and water proof.

I wont drill holes in the body anymore.....................rust area .

double sided tape works great......all or most modern cars dont drill holes anymore they use the tape,

makes sense the, stuff sticks and as Dave says it seals up around the edges and is water tight

yes as said above tiger seal is king for doing out like this
