   Tell that to my rear light cluster.   
      
   It does when provoked sufficiently. It is a short hairline crack along a   
   weak line near where the handle joins the body of the mixer bowl.   
      
   It will doubtless get worse if not repaired.

   I'll test it but I want to avoid the mess that I got by using acrylic   
   solvent glue on my definitely polycarbonate rear light cluster.   
      
   Acrylic would probably just about stand up to the duty but I doubt if   
   polystyrene would (and the latter tends to yellow a lot with age).
