Do you know what plastic the Nikon Coolpix 3100 camera body is made up of?
The reason I ask is that I had the same problem as all other Nikon Coolpix owners did - namely the tiny plastic loop on the camera body breaks off so the battery door won't latch so I superglued and epoxied a paperclip in place. This worked but everywhere inside the battery compartment was fogged and pitted with tiny holes from the Locktite cyanoacrylate superglue and everywhere the Locktite Quick Set 5-minute Epoxy was wet, the camera body melted.
Obviously I used the wrong glues and epoxy but nowhere in the reference articles on how to fix the common flaw in the Nikon Coolpix cameras did it say WHICH epoxy and glue were used!!!!

Since the crazy glue fogged and pitted the body and since the epoxy melted the body where it touched and stayed wet, I must have used the wrong glues. The epoxy says not to use on polyethylene or polypropylene - but what is the Nikon Coolpix 2100/3100 camera body made up of?
