Anyone here use Q-Bond?

[bull]

I keep seeing this stuff at the auto paint store I frequent and now that my grill is almost finished I kind of wish I'd tried it. Pretty much too late now but perhaps in the future it'd be worth a look. Apparently it can be used two different ways, by itself as a simple adhesive or with a filler powder. Can anyone offer up a review?

yea..I have used it...nasty stuff...but you have to be careful, the surface of what you are trying to put back together cannot be "smooth" that you are applying the resin to, it won't stick very well....and if you overdose the glue, it will be weak....practice is key, but this stuff ain't cheap

I will attest to it's strength....I fixed a lot of grilles on newer cars & trucks that were broken at work.

I have something similar (Plastifix I believe) but I haven't actually tried using it yet. No time in the garage since I bought it!

I have some cracked/chipped interior trim to repair.

  Hey Bull this stuff worked really well on my inside "A pillar" trim. Years ago I cracked it almost in half pushing the car around with the door open. I had JB Welded the crack from the inside as to not mess up the grain pattern on the outside and the JB re-cracked in no time soon after.
  I put the glue in the crack, it's real thin unlike super glue so it flows out easy and wets almost like WD-40, then dumped the black powder on the crack. (Holding as best I could.) After a few minutes it seemed hard so I let it sit on the table for 15 minutes and then brushed off the excess powder. I tried twisting and stressing the part and it held up nice.
  The powder left a kinda weld looking ridge but I found that most of it removed with just my fingernail as it was loosely bonded. I got lucky as years ago I had sprayed the part with a light coat of semi gloss black Krylon, that coating scraped away with much of the excess helping to clean up the repair revealing the original parts molded in color so it came out even better than I hoped. (That means this stuff is not compatible with any paint for bonding.)
  I got my Q Bond "Kit" off eBay for not too much money after watching the demonstration on YouTube. There really are not instructions so I will tell ya you use the provided red cap stick pin to open the end of the glue but the powder bottles need the cap to be opened up with something like a pocket knife or steak knife to make a bigger hole. The cap on the bottle twists just a little bit to open, you'll see it raise just a bit from the base of the top. I had a WTF moment thinking the powder bottle was ready to go after just twisting, then sticking it with the tiny pin thing and trying again....then grabbing my knife and reaming the top all while my glued part was wet. Open the powder and test before doing a repair so you know how it works.

Cool. I'm sold (mostly).
