Fix plastic patio furniture?
We rescued a 97 pound puppy (he was walking the streets for days). Before we rescued his brother, he was bored and chewed on our plastic patio adarondack chairs. Is there any way to fix them? He chewed on the part where you rest your arm. Thanks to all in advance

Look for Devcon plastic repair.
HELLO THERE,.
Use a filler combined with pva so it sticks. then when dry . rub down and paint with suitable product for plastic - maybe Satin finish.
Maybe some kind of fabric arm cover/cushion to hide it?
You can use Bondo, auto body filler, to repair the damage.
Hi Peggy, if you can use one of the plaster fillers to fix the chairs, you can then spray paint them to cover the patched areas. My friend did it and they look amazing. Here's the post if you'd like to peek. https://www.exquisitelyunremarkable.com/2018/10/an-elegant-patio-black-adirondack-chair.html
You could try sanding it with an electric sander. It may smooth out the bite marks. These chairs can be spray painted. They make a spray paint for plastic outdoor furniture.
Hello there,
Might be possible to buy Plastic Sheet (UPVC) from Plastic Suppliers.
Hello Peggy,
You might be able to reinforce the arm by using a piece of plastic from a water container that is able to be salvaged. Use an Adhesive that will stick Plastic to Plastic to form a bond. Then if you need to do the top of the arm also, use the same method. Paint to match existing or use a contrast for both arms. Hope that helps. I have successfully repaired thing this way, Hope it works for you.
Hi Peggy, if all else fails, you could always cut a piece of wood with a jigsaw to the shape of the arms and place it over the damaged area, apply glue to make it stick or screw it on and paint it
