Instruction manual Plastic Welding Kit
the stainless steel mesh can be formed to follow the curve. The
intention is to melt the mesh into the plastic and press it below the
surface and then smoothen the surface with a metal bar.
Welding of plastics:
3.7. Before welding plastic parts, it is necessary to define the material
these parts are made of. Usually there is a mark on the inner side of
a part. In most cases plastic parts are made of PP or ABS. For welding
use plastic filler rods – rod material must be the same as material of
the panel being repaired.
3.8. Grind out the seam to be welded using V-type end mill cutter.
Also carefully grind the needed amount of the filler rods you will use.
3.9. Mount the catalyst on the torch as described further. Remove the
protective cover (3). Put the catalyst and the tip into the protective
cover so that the tip points outside. Mount the protective cover on
the torch.
WARNING! Do not weld plastics using torch with open flame.
3.10. Turn the torch on, wait for several seconds until it heats up.
Adjust the temperature using gas adjustment lever (8) if necessary.
3.11. Weld the end of the filler rod to the beginning of the seam to be
welded and place the filler perpendicularly to the part surface. Wait
for a few seconds to allow curing of the welded rod end.
3.12. Gradually heat the seam and the filler rod and push the rod into
the seam, moving further.
3.13. After the welding is done wait some time while the seam cools
down and the filler cures. Then sand the repaired area, prepare it for
painting and apply the paintwork materials.
Soldering
3.14. Mount the catalyst and the soldering tip on the torch as
described further. Screw the soldering into the catalyst. Remove the
protective cover (3). Put the catalyst and the tip into the protective
