You don’t need to go to garage for every car repair: with the right car glue you can fix many cosmetic repairs. This guide tells you how to select the perfect car adhesive for your project and save on expensive garage bills in the process.
Choosing the best car adhesive depends on what you are trying to achieve and what materials the parts you want to fix are made from. For example, an all-purpose glue might be the best option for numerous small repairs. Universal glues such as Loctite Super Glue Liquid Universal can be used on many materials, including leather, metal, rubber and plastics (except polyethylene and polypropylene), making it suitable for multiple tasks.
If you are repairing a part that’s made of one particular type of material, however, select the glue that is specifically suited for it. For example, Loctite Super Glue All Plastics is an ideal glue for plastic car parts, as it will even work with difficult-to-bond plastics such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP).
A simple repair job you can do yourself and save money on is re-attaching a rear-view mirror. All you need is an adhesive like Loctite Super Glue Glass, which can bond glass to metal, and a pair of nitrile gloves, which are resistant to common chemicals and substances.
