I'm attempting to fix up my old ponies and playsets so that my nephews can play with them, but collecting the needed supplies is proving a bit of a daunting task. At the moment, I'm feeling a little stuck when it comes to adhesives and restorative putties. There's some information online, a bit of it conflicting, and certainly not helped by the fact that, as far as I know, the ponies and their playsets are made from different kinds of plastics.
Here's what I'm looking for; any help would be most appreciated!
- I need something that will hold pony heads on in spite of the unrestrained nature of 4-year-old hands. I'm not sure if there is any such adhesive that would also be non-permanent enough to let me decapitate ponies as needed for cleaning / re-hairing, but if it exists, that's the one I want.
- A glue for holding head hair in.
- A putty or sculpting medium for repairing damage to ponies, that will be as one with the pony vinyl in its 'cured' state and can withstand the rigors 4-year-olds might put it through.
- A heavy-duty, non-toxic bonding agent, preferably clear-setting and non-yellowing, for putting those hard plastic play sets back together.
- An agent for repairing broken or missing play set pieces, preferably that I can sculpt right onto the thing and maybe mix pigments into so it's the right color, that will also withstand the abuse little hands tend to deliver.
Thanks in advance!
