Alclad issue, anyone else ?

[Head in the clouds.]

I brought some new paints today and as is my want I usually shake the others to keep them good, I did this with a glass bottle of Alclad Grey primer. Inside the bottle was a little piece of ceramic which was in another bottle I brought so I added one to this bottle. As I shook the bottle grey primer went everywhere spraying my clothes, chair , wall and modelling bench.

I thought the lid was loose but upon further inspection (and another shake causing more spray ) I found a chunk of glass broken from the bottle but still, by some miracle, in place, has anyone else had this problem with the little ceramic pieces,?

I should have known better but I thought they were there to help aggitate the contents, now it Is I that is aggitated.

One spot of luck though, it missed my models but hit everthing else.

I haven't experienced it myself but I definitely heard this story before.

Hi,

Am a little confused.

Did you take an agitator from another bottle and put it in the alclad primer bottle.

Then you shook it and it broke ?

Gary,

Seems like your title suits you mate!! They put 1 agitator in a bottle for a reason mate! NEVER add another....as you found out!!!

Paul ; I took the ceramic from an empty container and added it to the full bottle of Alclad.

ATB ; I only added one, not two, even I have my limits dear fellow !

Upon reflection, maybe I was just a little too vigorous with my shaking, all I know is it made a mess.
