Default Plastic Coming off Wheel Weights
Any good fix for this besides trimming what is left down flat?

Will the concrete actually hold up w/out plastic?

Flex seal or rubberised undercoat or plasti-dip may solve your problem

I have some I need to fix.
I would use a fiberglass repair kit.

Make wooden dowels to cover up the bolt holes, that can be removed after the fiberglass cures.
Turn it face up and lay the fiberglass over the whole thing.

It may take 2 or 3 applications .
Once done with that,
Coat it with Flex seal to make it look a little bit Prettier

Not bad ideas -- I wonder if I can just trim a nice band where the radius/wear is and call it a day. The concrete shouldn't mind

I think the concrete will crumble, deteriorate and fall out if left expose to elements, gravity, rotating force & bumps and bruises.

That is one of the reasons my set is still sitting on the shed floor.

Clearly the plastic wasn't able to protect it from those either

Fair points though. I don't plan on hitting anything, but maybe a little plastidip or flex seal will help it out.

I have a half can of plasti dip somewhere that I think is going to get the job. I know that should stick. Good call on bedliner too.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
