RapidFix Dual Adhesive from Boss Products incorporates a professional strength adhesive and a welding powder, providing a welded seam to support repairs. The adhesive bonds metals, rubber, glass and most plastics.

When combined with the welding powder it can fill holes, gaps and cracks. RapidFix can be immediately sanded, drilled and painted.

THE REVIEW

Gary Miller, a technician at Reliable Auto Repair in Fort Atkinson, Wis., tested out the RapidFix Dual Adhesive.

He said the adhesive worked well for filling in cracks.

"You have to lay it down to work with, but it does seem to work real well," he said.

Gary thought RapidFix would be a good product for body shops.

"(When fixing a) crack in a panel, you could layer it in and fill it. A dashboard that might have a crack in it, you can layer it and fill it right in," Gary said.

Gary also liked the product's fast-drying application.

"It really reacts quickly if you're putting stuff together. It's instant, almost," said Gary. "It does work well that way."
