Fixing a cracked mug

if all else fails. you can always take that mug and create a mosaic trivat for another beloved mug. 😁

Hi, if it was me I would use a product called SUGRU it is permanent, waterproof . check out their website https://sugru.com/ good luck

I would use it for pens and pencils on my desk - that way you still get to enjoy it on a daily basis!

An old remedy used before super glue was around is to place the cracked item in enough whole milk to cover in sauce pan and bring to a boil. Boil for 20 to 30 minutes, then carefully take cracked item out to cool. I did this once with a saucer and it worked. It's worth a try if that is your favorite cup. I think the calcium in the milk seals the crack.

My SuperGlue is still holding strong. Possibly, different brands of Superglue have different capabilities.

I would never try to use it for a coffee cup again.However you could use it to hold pencils next to the phone.My next door neighbor tried to save a baking dish one time by glueing it together,the first time she washed it(by hand) it broke in the sink and she cut her hand pretty bad and hat to get 8 stitches,and couldn't use her hand for several weeks.So so not worth taking a chance.

Get hydrogen peroxide cream from beauty supply not 3%, stronger then dunk cup, plates whatever is crazed in this solution in a plastic bucket filled with this stuff may take up to 2 weeks will eliminate dark crazing lines and repair them. Keep checking it, works on things that were painted then fired not on cold painted items.

You want a "food contact safe" product. 2 good products are:

Dap 00688 All-Purpose Adhesive Sealant, 100% Silicone

(and)

Sil-Bond rtv 4500,Food Grade NSF FDA RTV Silicone Sealant Adhesive

Someone also suggested "Sugru", but I can't find the post. I think that could work also, but it is expensive and you have to use it within 2 months or it dries out and becomes unusable. I bought some when it first came out, never opened the package until 6 months later and it was already dried out.
