    Thank you for this method of testing and the information. I heard 409 works so I bought it and I was never able to have any success. Definitely going to get myself some of this polish. I think it’s just fun finding out what you have What it’s made of.

    Oh yeah I was going to ask you why is it so hard to find Simichrome in California? (Well at least in my town.) I ordered it and had to be refunded because it couldn't be shipped 🤷‍♀️. I was wondering if you know why it's so hard to get? I did end up getting my hands on some 🤭.

    شرحت عن فحص البكالايت اما السيلولويد واللوسيت لم تشرحي كيف يتم الفحص 😊

      Theres not an examination. But i did give some visual examples of how to tell what they are.

      @@lilowlthrifter911 يتم الفحص عن طريقة احتراق الخامة منه يصدر فقاعات عند الاحتراق ومن ثم يبدأ بالذوبان. ومنه يتكسر ويتفحم ولآ يذوب مع النار هذا على ما اعتقد. احرقي كل خامة سيتبين لك نتيجة جديدة للفحص

    Is lucite only clear? I thought it also came in many colors

      Lucite can be opague,clear and semi transparent. Contemporary lucite comes in solid colors

    Are you positive it’s Bakelite when it turns yellow? I sold a bracelet that tested using Simichrome’ it turned yellow. The person that bought it sent it back asking for a refund saying it’s Fakelite.

    • @lilowlthrifter911
      @lilowlthrifter911  Před 2 lety +2

      With my research and experiance it turns yellow. Your buyer was mistaken. Another way to check if you have a piece of authentic bakelite is If you create friction by rubbing the piece of bakelite to create heat , it should smell like formaldehyde. Hope this helps.

    Im just wondering if testing it this way would take away the value?
