Epoxy is great for repairing all kinds of plastic excepting PP, PE,
PTFE, PA and a few others. Even repairing low stressed metal (e.g. cast
aluminium or aluminium/zinc alloy trim) is quite possible
Repairing Bakelite as used in switches, knobs or the plastic on old
steering wheels etc.
It is available in many forms and mixtures and can usually be mixed with
colorants and filling powders if strength is not the main issue.
In some applications polyesther can be used instead of epoxy. It is
cheaper, easier to mix with other materials like fiber glass and sets
quicker.
