What's the material of the A1200's case ?

[Jose]

I accidentally got a small chunk off a corner near the floppy drive. Nowadays it's possible to find specialty glues for many types of materials, so I was wondering if anyone knows what specific plastic the A1200's case is made of.
Maybe there were various materials depending on the factory...

By the way, I've been out of here for a few years (was only checking AWorld from time to time) and it's nice to see some familiar nicknames back again.

I tried a cyanoacrylate based super glue and it fell off right away when it was subject to some pressure (it's on a point of contact with the other half of the case). I took care to let it set in for more than a day...
Acetone, I rather not make experiences at this point, I'm sure I'm gonna ruin it... It's surface is probably already altered because of the cyanoacrylate...

Found it, it's made of ABS.

Also, if you look a the bottom of the case from the inside it says ABS.

So now I got to get the patience to find a strong ABS glue, hopefully the acrylate residue won't screw things up...

"...
This new case is the perfect solution to make your Amiga 1200 bright and shine again and while being made of ASA Plastic (instead of ABS on the original cases). It will no suffer any yellowing."

I don't know if the original was pure ABS though, but seems to have been mostly made of it, at least judging by the yellowing of some old ones..
Then again, there's probably many other things that also yellow....
