That was in my pre camera days. Its on my website. Heating the wire is not necessary if you let it sit in the sun and warm up for a bit.

Also talk to your pharmacist - you'd be surprised what they can order, you may be able to get some acetic acid that's a little more potent than kitchen vinegar there. (either to use straight or dilute for less $ than kitchen stuff) You could also concentrate your own, since the boiling point of acetic acid is ~118°C, vs 100°C for water., so the water will evaporate before the acetic acid. (but stick around 50 and do it slow, or your house will still stink like vinegar!)

overnight in the brake fluid caused the hardened scrap piece of PVA to crumble very easy. Seems like it may be something to try, just not sure if the plactic pool would hold up to the brake fluid. In order to make the most of it, I think a custom made tank of some kind would be the way to go. Like a metal garbage can lid, so as not to have to use gallons of brake fluid.

i used brake fluid poured in the loose end of the safety glass.turn crt up and support neck so that the face as if it is in the set.pour fluid into opening and let it flow toward bottom.i did this once and it seemed to quicken the progress.a few wooden shims with slight tension created a river for it to flow.this was the next to last one i done.the last one was a heat method and although very fast,i got a little nervous about it.

I would like to let it soak overnight in the brake fluid. maybe some packing tape around the perimeter of the CRT lens, could form up a dam, but I am sure the adhesive would fail quickly and it would then leak out.

Maybe the CRT would fit in a round galvanized tub like maybe something from a feed/farm store.

Keep in mind you are going to have to clean up whatever solvent you use other than water. If you want the tape or silicone or whatever to stick you are going to have to remove all the brake fluid.
Best just to be patient and use water. Mine cleaned up so nice and the silicone is sticking so well. Good things come to those who wait. |

had a nice new deep crack in the pva, I was able to pick out a chunk about
1" by 2". it would be a nice sized piece to play chemistry on. I will prob stick in in a pan of brake fluid, maybe a side by side comparison 1/2pan of brake fluid pan 1/2 pan of water. Water does the trick you just need to be more patient than the owl on the tootsie pop commercial... |

pva
I picked this up in January, let it soak in water for 2 months, today, nice and sunny in NY, put it out in the yard, the mask literally popped off in about an hour. Ive heard someone say that patience with these things is the key. cheers, Bruce
