Resin filler for hard plastic

    Hello,

    I have a white plastic sink in a mobile home that is damaged.

    Basically the tap has come away from the sink and about a sq inch of plastic from the sink is missing either side of the tap - sink material is about 4mm thick

    There is enough sink material left on the tap to bond this to the sink.

    What I am hoping to do is fix the tap in place, put something flat under the missing pieces of sink and pour in a resin and level off.

    Question:

    Would anyone know a suitable white resin that would harden to a very strong durable plastic.

    Thanks

    You could try the fiberglass boat repair kits, I've fixed a Bath with this before and it still hasn't leaked, but it does discolour

    Thanks, was thinking fiberglass alright, but would rather sqeeze something out of a tube for pure convenience. some type of 2 part epoxy if I thought there was one good enough out there
