Plastic

[invalidsession]

Hi folks. Does anyone know what type of plastic is used for the 1997 Club Car body ? I have to repair some flaws in a recently acquired cart and my research shows several different methods and materials for different types of plastic repairs.
I have some acronyms on the front cowl underside ( TEO D&S and MPC) but they don't come up in google.
As usual your help is much appreciated.

Chris.

The red putty (not BONDO) Be sure and use plenty of grease and wax remover.
Heres a site thats got pretty good deals on paint supplies.
Kustom Poly-Glaze is a good filler.

For deeper scratches & gouges, Marson platinum body filler works great; takes a little sanding & patience but it bonds and fills pretty well. A little bit of red glazing putty works good for small nicks and dings. If you're talking about longer cracks, you're gonna need something more substantial. I've got a CC dealer nearby that has a plastic welder. Its basically like a woodburner kit that melts the plastic from both sides, then they use the actual armorflex filler rod and build it back up. I had about 10-12" worth of cracks right in the creases around the taillights that they fixed for me for about $90. Smooth it out with your fillers, knock down the high spots, scuff it with a red scotchbrite, then hit it with a high build primer. Sand it with at least 220grit and with a good spray job you've got yourself a show cart.
