How to: Need help fixing broken Logo's like Marshall's that say Marsha, Marsha Marsha

[chilipeppermaniac]

Prett sure you guys can figure out that I need a good and proven method to re-secure the plastic logo bits to one another on a Marshall logo.

I have seen plastic welding done before. I am trying to find out of there is anyone who has had luck gluing the joint together plus doing the welding in the unseen areas of the back. CCA glue work or not? Hot Melt?

Thanks in advance for the suggestions.

That's a heat gun at the top center of the image.

The antique gold, bronze effect was created by spraying gold paint from 24 inches away.

Everyone thinks the logo is made of metal.







It was broken in multiple places, but it was broken completely in two in one section. The other breaks were like a hinge.

Thanks Robert, I knew it is a heat gun. My Logo came to me, broken at the H and A directly one joint further than your S and H spot.

What did you do with the heat gun?

While not necessarily needed to fix an Amp/Cabinet logo, some good plastic welding can be very useful in salvaging still serviceable car parts, motorcycle parts, odds and ends around the house of broken plastic things.

Thanks Steve for the link. Yup I figured and will be buying one for my empty 50 Watt box I got 2nd hand. If I can easily fix the original from my '78 JMP Superlead, it will have the aged coloring and be the one that came with it. Best of both worlds.

I still remember some of the first plastic repairs I had the need to fix. My 1985 Motorcycle Fairing was one, Dirtbike Fenders/Plastics etc too.

What did you do with the heat gun?

Add heat to speed curing

Thanks Robert, the speed up curing was what I thought was the rationale.

They bubble, discolor, show burn marks or what?

Get soft and wanna curl up. Use a hair dryer instead.

Over here you have to provide the serial number for the amp before the will sell you one

To get the logos that are on the black cabs, I had to go to 2 different companies and gave them the serial number from the DSL

I’d use CA glue and baking soda to glue this back together.
