To fix a broken car door handle, first degrease and remove any rust from the surface using a metal-containing epoxy like J-B Weld SteelStik. This metallic compound can be drilled, machined, or sanded when fully cured, making it ideal for repairing cracks, small gaps, seam connections, or holes in exhaust manifolds or pipes. FiberWeld repair casts combine high-strength fiberglass wraps with adhesive for quick-curing repairs or structural reinforcement. They are easy to apply and can be used as a filler or to repair holes and cracks.
The test method for repairs involves striking the poplar mallet head on the vise’s anvil, twisting the handle by hand, prying the handle with locking pliers, and hammering the handle. If you have a broken car door handle, weld it if possible and remove any rust from the surface. For quick repairs, use a metal-containing epoxy like Gorilla Epoxy, which has a strength of 3960 PSI and a set time of 25 minutes and a cure time of 24 hours.
In case of a broken car door handle, weld it to the latch innards, which are almost certainly steel. JB Weld “Original Cold-Weld Formula Steel Reinforced Epoxy” is a personal choice, but the strength of epoxy repairs depends on the fit-up of the break area, the cleanliness of the joint, and the surface area of the joint.

YOU SKIPPED OVER THE MOST IMPORTANT PART – What do you do with that rotating cap? Do you turn it one way and then the other? Do you remove it completely? I got glue all over my hands trying to figure it out. Any moron can squeeze out equal amounts of epoxy and hardener. Next time I’ll look for a product with two separate tubes. THAT I can figure out.
The problem I have is they product is called a syringe, leading me to believe I would be able to use this to inject into a hole in the brick mortar. I see this truly is more of a hand mixing weld and would make filling a hold on a brick wall much more difficult. Thank you for the instructions, if I hadn’t watched this, I would most likely have purchased this only to be greatly disappointed.
