    Great feedback! It is white, and Pentair does make the skimmer in both ABS and PVC. How can I determine which material it is?

    Look up plastics in the yellow pages and if you still have the tab, take it to them. If not, ask them how to determine and if there is a glue that works on both.

    I just had this same problem only my tab was only cracked and not completely torn off. I was able to overlap the broken tab with some fiberglass mesh and brush the resin over it until it dried up. Once it dried it is holding real nice. If I were to do it again I would duct tape the mesh in place and then brush the resin over it - or grow a couple extra arms to hold everything in place. Then once dried cut the mesh along where the tape was.
