Default Venture canpoy

Does anyone know what kind of glue will stick to the milk bottle plastic canopy on a Venture? I need to do a small repair and have not had any luck with CA, epoxy, or silicone.

Default canopy glue

I am not sure but the canopy is like pvc pipe type nylon plastic...so as a guess I would try a small amount of pvc pipe cement from your local hardware store...try backing the crack also with another pc of the same plastic..maybe from a bleach bottle?...just a guess that might help out...

I doubt you will get anything to actually stick, with any reliability. But best of luck. Let us know if you find something.

Default "glue"

hi i kinda "sealed" up a split in a raptor canopy once with a hot glue gun. not sure if it would work for any and all repairs but it was split at the seam on the nose and it held it .just kinda smeared it on from the inside.
hope that helps

Did you try to sand the area first? How about JB Weld?

FYI, I was able to fix the crack by gluing a patch of the canopy material on the inside with a hot glue gun. Seems to be holding OK.
