CHIYUKintsugi Repair kit: Modern Repair Kit - Gold - Gold Glue - Food Safe - Dishwasher Safe - The Most Complete and Durable Kintsugi kit

I'm a human wrecking ball when it comes to china and ceramics, and I'm just as bad with glassware. I've never managed to keep a single complete set of anything. I'd finally accepted my fate and started buying single unmatched items (or melamine...) but then I broke a particularly beloved mug and wondered about kintsugi repairs. None of the products I found were food-safe and then I spotted this one. I did my first repair today and even with my limited craft skills, it looks pretty good.Time will tell if the mug will stand up to my normal handling, i.e. careless, but this kit does what it claims.Pros:1. Easy to mix and apply – I was worried that my lack of skill and general tendency to over-glue things would ruin this, but it's very forgiving and it's meant to ooze out unevenly to get that look.2. You get enough materials for quite a few uses. (And the gloves are really good quality.) Good value.3. Excellent instructions and video – very easy to follow.4. The gold powder is a convincing colour. It's amazing how the metallic look comes to life when you buff the powder across the surface to finish off the repair.5. The resin seems to be strong enough to re-attach a handle as well as cementing chunks of the mug wall. (Yes, that mug landed hard.)6. Pretty little package – it would make a super gift.Not so much cons as cautions:1. Mica powder. If you think glitter gets everywhere, you haven't seen mica on the loose. Handle with respect or you'll be wiping gold dust off everything for weeks.2. I would have preferred two separate tubes for the resin components. The double-barrelled dispenser is very clever, but with my dubious dexterity, I'm fairly sure I didn't manage to dispense equal amounts.Overall, I love this kit. I could have saved quite a few precious objects if I'd known about it sooner. And of course I'm now looking for more things to repair. If you're accident-prone, you might as well flaunt it.

We had great fun using this kit at home & discovering the art of kintsugi. We are very proud of our two initial masterpieces! Highly recommend this!The manual was missing but we were able to find a PDF online so in the end, this was not a problem.Also great to know, you can buy a very good, professional and informative short online course to help you apply and optimise the technique at home.

The packaging is good, the instructions look good too (pictures help quite a bit) but unfortunately my package did not include the mixing cards (and associated instructions). Will need to look on the web or YouTube for the appropriate glue-to-powder mixing ratio

This is great fun to use. Detailed instructions and a lovely way to repair broken items. Have used it on a ceramic tile and a china plate that is part of a treasured tea set. Not only were these items rescued, it had added to their story.

The kit contains about enough additional materials for one fix (if it is the first one it will be messy). You will have glue and gold dust remaining but you will need to get everything else on your own on the second time

Brought a whole new life to my favourite mug - beautifully packaged and very easy to use. Loved everything about it!

The instructions were clear and the products easy to use. It is not the first Kintsugi set I’ve used but it is definitely the most complete.Very happy with the result. The kit will also make a nice gift.

The glue leaked so it was unusable. Very disappointing
