Basic Kintsugi Repair Kit

Yes. Please be aware of allergic reactions to urushiol, which is contained in urushi as treating urushi.
Urushi can cause skin irritation when it is wet, but once completely hardened, urushi is perfectly food-safe and is one of the most durable natural materials.

It is important to always wear rubber gloves when treating lacquer. The use of rubber gloves and arm covers prevents urushi from touching the skin. However, because lacquer vaporizes in miniscule amounts, people who easily get rashes from poison ivy or mango may get severely irritated even when wearing rubber gloves.
In the unlikely event that you touch the lacquer or become irritated by it, please consult a physician and seek immediate medical attention.

Chimahaga is not responsible for any health problems caused by treating lacquer.
Please be very careful when treating urushi.

After the Urushi lacquer is completely dry, it is harmless to the human body.

You can repair about 3chipped items or a broken item. However, the actual number of items that can be repaired depends on the size of the damage.

This kit includes the minimum amount of gold powder. If you need more gold powder, please purchase additional gold powder separately.

Yes, isopropyl alcohol can be used in place of anhydrous ethanol. However, since the cleaning power of urushi lacquer is somewhat inferior, we recommend the use of anhydrous ethanol if possible.

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.

Glass is not suitable for kintsugi because urushi lacquer does not work well.

Never use it in a microwave oven. It is very dangerous and may cause a fire.
