AK II does not work on plastic. It is the perfect material for ivory repair but when used on plastic it discolors the margins (the area surrounding the patch takes on a purplish tinge) which defeats the purpose. Even ivory heads that have a plastic front, the head patch is indistinguishable but the front has that discolored hue. I've used white MarineTex with fair results. -- Regards, Jon Page
