What kind of glue can be used to repair a car bumper?

Car bumpers can be repaired using epoxy resin adhesive. Below is an introduction to the functions and classifications of car bumpers: Functions of car bumpers: Car bumpers are safety devices designed to absorb and mitigate external impacts, protecting the front and rear of the vehicle. In addition to their primary protective function, front and rear bumpers also aim to harmonize with the vehicle's overall design and achieve lightweight construction. Classifications of bumpers: Bumpers can be divided into two types: plastic and metal. Plastic bumpers are mostly made of polypropylene and are primarily located at the front (front bumper) and rear (rear bumper) of the vehicle.
I previously used epoxy resin adhesive to repair my car's bumper, and the results were fantastic. Bumpers are typically made of plastic, and ordinary glue tends to fall off easily, but epoxy adhesive has super strong bonding power. When applying it, you need to thoroughly clean the crack first, using alcohol to remove grease and dust, then apply the glue and press it firmly for several hours to allow it to fully cure. Make sure to choose a high-temperature-resistant type, so it won’t come loose even during long summer drives. After this cost-effective repair, I’ve driven tens of thousands of kilometers without any loosening. Remember to wear gloves to avoid skin irritation, and avoid forcing it in very cold weather as it affects adhesion. Small damages are worth fixing yourself, but for large cracks, it’s better to visit a professional shop to avoid potential hazards.
