Hello all Members, I have been experimenting in minor bottle repairs. So I think it is repairing them! Maybe you will disagree with my way of repairing my bottle. I did alter the bottles length 1/32' or so to remove the chip by slowly removing the lip to remove the undamaged lip to recede below the damaged area. Then I tried to bevel the blob top inside and outside to as close to the original as I could. This was my first attempt at this repair and It was very nerve racking and time consuming. The hardest part was polishing the sanded areas back to the original shine. I will post a before and after picture and would like to get some feed back, Positive or negative! Please note: I only tried this on two bottles that I plan to keep in my collection, NOT, try to sell them or pass them off as original bottles!! Thanks, Kevin.....
