What is J-B Weld for? How To Repair With J-B Weld

What happens here

Once the JB Weld is thoroughly mixed, apply a small dab of the dark gray epoxy mixture to the back of the metal letter that needs to be reattached. The host carefully applies it to the existing plastic fittings on the back of the letter. Avoid applying too much, as excess can squeeze out and create a mess. Carefully position the letter back onto its original spot on the sign, pressing it firmly but gently into place. Ensure it is aligned correctly. Wipe any immediate excess epoxy off the mixing stick. Let the repaired letter set without disturbing it for the recommended 4-6 hours before handling, and allow 15-24 hours for a full cure.

Goal: Securely reattach the metal letter to the sign.
