Precaution
Is it true that Urushi Lacquer can cause a rash?
Yes, urushi lacquer causes a severe rash when getting it on the skin.
So, be sure to wear gloves while using this kit.
Does the Urushi Lacquer lose its allergenic properties after it has cured?
After the Urushi lacquer is completely dry, it is harmless to the human body.
How many items can be repaired with this kit?
You can repair about 10 chipped items or 3~5 broken items.
However, the actual number of items that can be repaired depends on the size of the damage.
If you want to repair more items, you will need additional gold powder.
Is it ok for hot liquids or foods?
Yes, urushi lacquer becomes very robust when it hardens.
But it is not suitable for items that are directly exposed to fire, as this will damage the urushi lacquer.
Is kintsugi appropriate for a glass item?
Glass is not suitable for kintsugi because urushi lacquer does not work well.
