Hi Pat
 
I have had some success repairing cracked Heathkit dials with a product  
from Revell called Contacta Professional which is a liquid glue for plastics  
and it appears to contain a solvent that works with the dial without over  
softening the plastic but sets very hard. This is manufactured in Germany and 
 freely available in Europe and the UK in 25gram containers.
 
I emailed Revell in the States who confirmed that they do not have  any 
plans to import this product. I also investigated sending a small  container of 
it to a fellow collector in the States but the UK Post Office  indicated 
that it would not approve the product for dispatch by post as it is  solvent 
based.
 
Perhaps someone on holiday here could take a container back and try it  out?
