Can Plasti-Mend be applied over other repair materials?
Part of the strength of the Plasti-Mend is the ability to bond into the ABS plastic which it cannot do with anything on the ABS. If the old repair material did not stick to the ABS well enough to repair it the Plasti-Mend cannot stick to it. So, anything down to the ABS plastic should be removed . Sometimes heating the old sealant with a heat gun or even a hair dryer will loosen it so it can be peeled off without too much trouble or you can use a coarse rotary rasp or sanding disc. You don’t have to worry too much about damaging the plastic since the Plasti-Mend will repair it with no problem. The main thing is to get a clean ABS surface for the Plasti-Mend to bond into.
