They had me until they said, "G/flex will also stick to polyethylene plastic". Trying to "Glue" polyethylene plastic is like trying to patch candle wax. Total waste of time and $.

Any epoxy resin will adhere to ABS. Prepping it with "ABS Cement" just prier to applying an epoxy coated patch should work just fine. I'd just get a piece of https://www.amazon.com/Fiberglass-Re...69&sr=8-6&th=1 instead of window screen.

Wet out the patch material on a piece of cardboard, with a 3" paint brush. Peel the wetted patch off of the cardboard and put it over the crack, dobbing it up with the end of the paint brush until it stays in place and keep dobbing it until the white air bubbles are gone. Let it set for 30 minutes, then put another layer on. Maybe crisscross or overlap layers. Let it set over-night and it's not going anywhere.

NOTE........ will NOT stick to polyethylene.
