Thank you for the lovely comment, I just wanted to get the wowee factor and feel I can do better but I am excited by what can be achieved eventually. Kind regards James

Hi Melissa,I have a full 100ml cologne bottle with the top but it has chipping all around the lid,can you give me a quick fix solution???

Thank you so much for the kind comment. I will continue to practise and I'll show some more even better ones soon. Take care - James

Hi Brenda, that's the biggest issue, the time. I'm using the rapid dry glue because im impatient to do the job in a day and so it becomes a quick guess and go for it! I will refine things. Thank you for your very kind comment - James

It is glue 6-year-old

Thanks so much Kathi for your nice comment. I will keep experimenting and I'll do a follow up video with better results and better advice for others.

Hi Eddie, Thank you very much for the comment, I will keep practising and learning how to get the mixes just right. Also with the brand and types of epoxy.

Epoxy resin glue for glass..

Cheers Rachel. I will keep practising and get them even better in time.

Thank you as always Noralee for your kind comment. I'm glad we think the same. I have more experiments to come, it's just finding time. You too take care - James

Hi Wendy. Thank you for your kind feedback, I’ve since improved the process so maybe I’ll do a follow up. Next video will be back to treasure hunting

Awesome I haven’t tried the green of a poison yet, it might be quite a tricky one. The cobalt blue is a nightmare, it’s actually a kind of purple!

@@findcreate6174 Does adding black help at all? I'm so grateful for this video and your finished bottles are superb. I'm English but I love your accent 😊

I think you’ve done an excellent job. Would never have even thought of doing this. I appreciate your effort of mixing to match the colors!

Someone else has said that too, so I'm going to try it. No one has ever said my accent is nice, it's a diluted Huddersfield accent 😂

Thanks for the kind comment, I'm going to do some more and improve the results

Hi Theresa, thank you as always for your kind comment!! Have a nice week.

Hi Elaine and thank you. I’m going to refine the technique and post an update and hopefully more bottles get saved!

Thank you Maggie. I’m quite disappointed with the aqua one, my practise bottle was better. But as the bottle I filmed was the “story bottle” I couldn’t do it again. The brown one is the perfect colour match so I’ll keep practicing

Once again thank you very much. I hope I can impress you again with future videos.

Hi Geja. Thanks very much and thanks for the idea of fixing porcelain! The mirror is coming 😂. I want to make the glass repair better but it will take practice. Yes I went to the dump again last week, it’s getting a lot of diggers so I hope there’s enough left by summer!

Probably will be enough for him. Everything he will find is great. Good luck with practicing. Love to see more.

Thanks Chantal, I’ll look for it on the action online. Or just get some clay but I need a release agent too it seems

Hi Patricia. You're absolutely right, but over here in Holland finding old dumps is like finding hens teeth and the nice bottles often have imperfections. I just wanted to be able to save them and improve them. Thank you so much for your kind comment.

Here in the states old bottles are also rare to find. You about have to own the property or be close friend to the people who do to be able to know where old dumps are let alone dig in them. I live in Georgia and had never heard of it before. I have found a man that digs in Alabama next, state west, he found a real ginger beer bottle from the 1800's under 6 ft of dirt should say clay . How he found the dump he went throught countless records and found an old settlement that had long been gone , all grown up in trees and ofcourse a small river running through it. But like I said got to have connections of some kids to dig. Good luck with your finds and hope you find that perfect bottle you long to find . By the way I actually visited there about 50 years ago when my Husband was in the military.

What a interesting message to read about the situation near you. It’s a shame you can’t find the dumps as easily as we can in england (or should I say “they” can in england). Every hole in the ground was filled in Victorian times. Over here in NL I have to drive for 1.5 hours to find a dump site. All the best, take care - James

Also wow that you and your husband were here in Holland. I hope you liked it

I thought it was beautiful. Never had I seen places like that before. There was a restaurant at the end of a long dock looking platform reaching out into the ocean ,round I believe ofcourse that was many ,many years ago.

Hello Amanda! Thank you as always. I did another bottle today and the aqua was better. It hardly needs any pigment at all. I’ll make a follow up video on other colours soon. I hope you’re well and thanks again for the comment

Hi Irma. Thanks again. I’ve also just been told that white-tac is available in the Action. I might try silicone molds too.

Thanks again Kari 🙏🏻🙏🏻

Thanks very much. Having posted the video and watched it back I wish I’d done more experimenting but the principle works and I hope to save a beautiful chipped embossed beer bottle or a poison at some point. If you find one, please give it a try!

Cheers Dale! Much appreciated 👍🏻

Hi Mary, Yes it's worth a try, I think it needs less intense green/blue but something deeper to catch the light passing through in the thicker areas.

Thank you! Cheers Cristian

Thanks very much for your comment. Indeed I’m creating a list and will try other dyes. The blue one they provide is totally hopeless and doesn’t mix with the epoxy. I want to create cobalt blue for the poisons

@@findcreate6174 , If that dye is expensive, try experimenting with food coloring or even cheap bargain store water colors, to find out color mixes only. For cobalt try a teeny bit of black, blue and orange or yellow? Haven't tried it, but I suppose it's time for trial and error eh? : )

Hi Ilona. I hope you are well? Sorry for my late reaction to your kind comment. Lots going on and had to put KZfaq on hold for a few weeks. I'm back now tho, so thank you sincerely for your kind advice. Take care - James

@@findcreate6174 Hi James, you're so welcome. Really hope this is the same product you were mentioning in the video. (Or almost the same) Hope you are doing fine and life treats you well. I'm fine for as far as possible. Some health issues and very tired, but that's all. Wishing you all the best! Big hug, Ilona.

Yes Ilona it is the same thanks. I’m in England now so I’ll pick some up here anyway. I hope you can get back to full fitness soon! Unfortunately Linda’s father died after a huge stroke and then her ex father-in-law died and her children have taken it hard. Then the family cat died!! Plus some other things, but anyway, it’s life and we just have to get used to it. All the best to you. Kind regards - James

@@findcreate6174 I'm so sorry to hear that James! I can totally understand that this is a very difficult time for Linda and her children, as well as for you. My sincere condolences! Hope you have a wonderful time in England. It must feel so good to be back in your home country, people speaking your own language and eating your favourite food. Enjoy your time staying there. Big hug for you and Linda! With kind regards, Ilona

Bedankt Rini. Ik zal gelukkiger zijn als het perfect is. Ik blijf oefenen !!

Hi Anne, thank you so much for your comment and advice. I had a bit of an experiment with adding different colours but not as you suggested. I need to find a good quality ultra clear epoxy because the glue I have is expensive and poor, It doesn't seem to ever totally harden. We use it at work but the slight flexibilty is a positive attribute there. I'll certainly take your advice. Kind regards James.

@@findcreate6174 If I hear of a clear appoxy I'll send you the info . Glad you think my mixing idea might help . Look forward to all future find and create repurposing crafts you intend to work on ahead . Anne from Massachusetts , USA .

I’m going to try some more repairs next days off so I’ll let you know how the mix works.

@@findcreate6174 Glad you might try it .I just now am wondering if the Teal you have has a white undercolor . It looked to me on the video that it might and if so it might be what caused the cloudiness in the blue bottle appoxy repair . The amber bottle repair seemed not to be cloudy . Perhaps it would help to minimize the teal more than both the blue and green . Play with ratios very carefully to avoid white in Teal causing cloudiness . Hope it goes very well and you enjoy the experience . Carpe Diem . Anne from Massachusetts , USA .

Oh dear Yvonne, so not the method for you. I think glass can be repaired with grafted molten glass (like how the Northern Mudlarks make beads) but that’s one I will have to try in the future

Yep had to be on cortisone when i used epoxies. I did wood turning back then and had to use certain epoxies for sealing wood.

Thanks Melanie, sorry for the late reply.
