Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I'm sure this review won't be very persuasive being that it's coming from the author. I can assure you, dear prospective reader, that this was no half-hearted effort. I poured a tremendous amount of time and energy into this book; it took me about one year to write the text and develop all of the line art. Kudos to Dan Kennedy and his staff at Whitehorse Press for the editing and layout. They appearance of the book is absolutely first rate, and I'm proud that the book is the first one by Whitehorse Press to be done in full color from cover to cover.
As far as I know, this is the first book to detail the methods and technology of automotive and motorcycle plastic repair for the layman. It builds on my eight years of experience as technical support director for Urethane Supply Company, a leading manufacturer of plastic repair and refinishing products for the automotive collision repair industry.
This is a great book for the do-it-yourselfer who wants to do some repair or restoration work to his own vehicle. It would also be a great study guide for the collision repair technician who would like to broaden his skills base and create a source for additional revenue. The book only assumes that you have an interest and desire to save money by repairing your own plastic parts.
I think there's a very good chance that, if you choose to buy this book, you'll save the purchase price of the book with your very first repair and that you'll build skills that will save you much more money in the long run. If you have any questions about the book, please e-mail me at kurt@urethanesupply.com. Enjoy!

It's a familiar story - a simple accident in the driveway results in cracked and broken bodywork that costs thousands of dollars to replace - more, sometimes, than the vehicle may be worth. Few repair shops or Do-It-Yourselfers have been interested or had the wherewithal to attempt plastic repairs, leaving no options but part replacement on an otherwise perfectly serviceable machine. In fact, insurance rates on some motorcycles and snowmobiles have skyrocketed because of the high cost of replacing broken plastic.How To Repair Plastic Bodywork by Kurt Lammon solves this common dilemma with easy-to-follow directions applicable to any plastic repair - cars, motorcycles, trucks, ATV's, or snowmobiles. Lammon shows the reader how to assess the damage and determine whether it can be repaired, then provides step-by-step procedures for identifying the kind of plastic from which the part is made, and fixing everything form a simple scratch to a major break. Included is a comprehensive resources guide for tools and materials.
