I was thinking of the commercial powder adhesive sets you can buy (available in black and grey, but brown would be nice!), rather than baking soda, but the principle is the same.

Interesting. It's the high stress on the battery door that makes me think the powder sets (or baking soda) wouldn't work on the case surrounding the battery door. I think it might be too brittle (but I haven't tried it).

Just received two tubes and have some cracked posts to work on along with other repairs where strength and material must be built up.

Good luck! You can put it in The Book if it works!
