I patched mine with fiberglass resin and cloth. You just need to rough up the backside with sandpaper so you can get good adhesion.

Thanks do you have to mix anything or is the resin out of a can?

Cut a piece of cotton and mix and cover the crack with this stuff and it's works? I can do that I will get it tomorrow
How about if I use fiber tape they use for dry wall

Almost anything will work as long as it is porous and will easily conform to the shape...
If you have to do a corner the drywall stuff might not work
