Edit: I decided to throw it out and order a new stainless steel one that’s all one piece. Thanks for the help!

    Get a proper single piece silicone spatula for your non stick and throw this one away. Get a single piece metal spatula for your stainless steel pan.

    Alternatively, throw out your non stick pans and skip step one above.

    Edit: Disregard what I said about metal spatulas. Get a two piece, wood handled, metal fish spatula. It is my new favorite item in the kitchen.

    I can relate to not wanting to throw something away if you can just fix it, but I guarantee you will save yourself a lot of time and stress if you just go down to your local thrift shop with a kitchen section and pick one of the dozens of spatulas they will have for like $0.50.

    The last thing you want is the mess and possible pain of your repaired spatula breaking under the stress of lifting a hot, oily food from the pan.

        Just get metal with a plastic or wooden handle. I got a $3 one 5 years ago and it works great. Cast iron can handle metal on metal.

          Not great for ceramic coatings though.

          Ours is like this and is at least 12 years old. I believe the plastic is over molded directly onto metal handle which sits about 1.5 cm into the plastic.

    West Systems 105 epoxy and 205 fast hardener. Roughen the area with some 220 grit sand paper, blot on some epoxy with a chip brush, wrap in fiberglass. Repeat until you have 2-4 layers of fiberglass. Use epoxy with 406 high-density filler to blend the edges if desired. Vacuum bag it until the epoxy has cured. Wet sand smooth if necessary, working up to 4000 grit.
