Vee out the crack drill small hole at eother end to stop it spreading and then squeeze out the equal amounts and mix apply to crack and repeat on inside, sand down smooth over will a little filler and paint. Around a fiver a tube, dead easy and a hell of a lot cheaper than the very similar Wurth system. I use it all the time, sets in around 15 mins depending on temp, and is fully cured in 1 hour. Wurth system comes with loads of refills and mixing tubes and appicator gun for around 200 quid. Bonds different types of hard plastics, unlike thermo welding rods, and can be moulded to make lugs etc.

It's fine for doing larger repairs, I've used it to remake mssing sections of panels, and lugs and tabs too
