[QUOTE="Burton Strauss III, post: 7930719, member: 59677"]"Fixing" it will require identifying the specific plastic NCG uses and thus an appropriate. solvent. Mechanically, a small application will likely fuse the plastic and be (largely) un-noticeable. BUT the solvents are often nasty chemicals you want nowhere near yourself nor the coins. For example, chloroform is a great solvent for styrene used in model building. Mercaptan is another, it's also the active ingredient in skunk.
