Kintsugi Repair Kit Gold, Gold Glue for Ceramics and Porcelain Repair, Kintsugi Kit Repairs Your Meaningful Ceramics, Suitable Gift for DIY Kintsugi Repair Starters

Oddly, I only usually give five star reviews in my Amazon review section. I'm reluctant to say anything bad about the kit because this is a difficult craft to learn and I'm sure that kintsugi artists of yore dealt with different materials when they did this. I love the look of it because things do look better broken and fixed, if repaired in such an artful way. The level of difficulty is high. Or probably, it's more likely me.

Her cat broke her mug that her baby bro made her. She was really upset cause the mug has a lot of meaning to it. So I bought this kit so she can put it back together. As she stated it will still hold it’s meaning despite the cup previously broken.

Like you, I bought this becasue somethingt I loved broke and I didn't want to trash it. This product does exactly what you want it to IF you remember one thing not in the instructions: mix the two part epoxy glue thoroughly and then add the gold powder. The instructions just tell you to mix them all together and if you do that it will ever harden. Mix glue first, add gold powder -I used about 30% powder by volume- and apply. It will harden quickly do if you have mre than two pieces plan in doing them ne at a time.I'm pleased with the results. 50ml of glue is more than enough. I used perhaps 15 ml for the final project and two small tests.By all means do a test first. find something and break it before you attack the reason for the purchase.

Make sure you work fast as suggested. The epoxy sets up fast

Easy to use but the gold was more yellow

The glue does not dry quickly on your project but dries extremely fast in the cardboard tray. I sat for over 15 minutes holding two pieces of my vase together and they did not stick together. I checked the glue in the tray and it was dry. I remixed the glue taking extra care to make sure I was getting equal parts product and applied the glue to the piece After hold for another 10 minutes and it still was not dry, I decided to tape the piece. Long story short my vase is more messed up than when I started. And it have been 48 hours, the glue is still sticky to the touch. Now I have to scrape tacky looking gold glitter glue off my still broken vase. Very disappointed.

Just as presented.

I was trying to use it to paint the surface of the ceramic plate I was repairing and the epoxy hardened too fast and was too thick to use as paint onto the surface.
