i'm not 100% sure raven, but i think it may be ABS/polystyrene cross, its a weird plastic, and youre right, not much sticks to it permanantly

would keying the surface of the plastic help the item to be glued on with the super glue gel stick better

sanding the etch brass face or the metal face that you glue to the plastic also helps....
