87 VFR 700 What type of plastic do I have?

I'm plastic welding in order to repair some of the body panels on my 87. The 2 front side fairings are made out of ABS, I've already established that. Battery cover(s), rear tail section and seat cowl are an off-white color. Anyone know what material it's made out of? I thought it was PVC?

Thanks!

 

Anyone?

 

ALMOST all the stuff u mentioned is ABS, but the front fender and seat cowl are something else and will react most unfavorably to the application of any heat.

 

the breakable kind...... let us know how the welding works

 

use ducttape then sand it down.................lol maybe use a fiberglass repair i've done that and it worked ..

 

I'm going to try the acetone/abs slurry method on my nearly-shattered left lower. We'll see how that works. Also planning on going to TAP plastics here in the bay area to see what they say. I'm sure they get a LOT of people coming in with fairing repair questions...

 

i've had great luck using a 40 watt large-tip soldering iron to melt/fuse pieces together, working from the inside, of course, but the odor is terrible!!

Sand the joining area down to bare black plastic first.
