   I think so. I know they sell all manner of stuff for bonding, filling, fibreglassing so I think they will have it or something similar.

   halfords, tbh you get small kits which have the fibreglass and a resin bottle and a hardner tube/small packet. Very brittle thought and makes a huge mess.. being a pain to get off. Wouldnt you be better off using a hot glue gun?

   halfords def do it there is a thing that looks like 2 syringes and you push the plunger and it feeds equal amounts of the 2 substances and goes rock solid in about ten minutes

    You will see that the glue gun failed.
