I have an old Pavilion G6 that I want to restore. Its working well except for one thing, the screen lid hinges cannot be screwed anymore to the laptop's base. It seemed that the hinge movement was too rigid and over time it broke up the plastic at the base leaving some empty space where the hinge should have been screwed. I have un-tighten the hinges to prevent the issue from happening again. I would have done it sooner if I knew.
I checked online and found some people using crazy glue and spraying baking soda over it. But I don't think it will work in my situation. Crazy glue is instantaneous and melt pieces together, but I don't have pieces to melt together. I really need to build up a structure to fill up the space.
Hot glue would allow me to build a structure, but I do not think its strong enough to hold the hinge in place.
Do you have other suggestion?
