Plastic filler?

I have a small hole in a plastic part (a button) I need to fill in with something, like more plastic, that will need to be gluable to another piece of plastic. Recommendations?
 
Bondo. Just mix some up, apply it with a bondo squeegy, make it nice and smooth. Sand it down to make it flush with whatever surface and paint it.

Its used in autobody repairs and its fairly cheap. not sure if thats what you're looking for but I don't know of many other plastic fillers.

Can you glue cured, sanded bondo to plastic? This is a small suface area, so needs to be a strong bond.

Paint and primer sticks to bondo, so I'm sure that glue would stick to it.
 
You can always use JB Weld too. It's not as easy to work with as bondo, but it's very strong and will make an excellent bond. As with all 2-part epoxies, you can mix different amounts of hardener to get your desired consistancy.
