Guys
If somebody would ask me right now what was the best investment I ever made on
a repair tool for my Old 240 I can only think of one and only thing. The "Hot Glue Gun". I am using Black matte "Glue Sticks" which resemble 100% the 240 Bumper material. Some of the repairs I have made using the "HGG" are the following.
1. Repaired a nasty cut In my front bumper after a guy backed off with his hitch. The repair is almost 100% Undetectable, you have to use your touch to feel the difference
2. I glued back one of my Reverse Lenses that fell off.
3. I performed numerous repairs in the Black trim above the bumpers. By using a razon and sanding down the material you get everything back to stock condition. If you paint it..you can't really tell the difference.
4. Glued the glovebox door cap and preventing it from rattling
5. Fixed a broken PCV Valve after a piple fell off.
6. Fixed a crack around the Fuel Sender unit exit port.
7. Fixed cracks on the Dashboard and Vinyl painted it saddle Brown. It almost looks like NEW. The Cracks are invisible.
The amount of possibilities are almost endless. There is nothing compared to the HGG and the sticks are DIRTY CHEAP compared to using other adhesives and you don't have to wait too long for it to dry.
Which is you favorite repair tool that you really find priceless when maintaining an older Volvo?
Thanks
Mike
