20 years long glue

 it took about twenty years for the watch resin i used to use for cameos to flake off easily with a fingernail. thats not a lifetime!! im sad about it and hope no ones cameo has fallen out. im now looking into other two part epoxy resins or super glue. i want a permanent bond!!! not sure if i should use super glue but i see it advertised as ok for jewelry repair. i would never use the stuff. theres a two part epoxy resin that says its for jewelry but what does that mean. does that mean delicately handled items only? i want super strength. two part epoxy ... or just super glue. i dont know what to do.

another thing im looking into is finding a gold plater in town that wants to work with me and tiny pieces of jewelry without gouging me for rates. still havent found any to even agree because once they hear youre selling the stuff they either refuse or charge you up the wazoo. i find it dumb and unfair its not like the pieces to be plated are already sold. so greedy like what, no one else can make money on gold plated things apparently according to the few local gold platers ive contacted. worse yet, a jewelry store with in house repairs...... sighing. glue and paint it is.....

Handmade Jewelry Cabochons / Cameos for sale

An Its Your Life original product
for your creations

Handmade in Canada using vintage paint images from the U.K., on new plastic domed cabochons made in the U.S.A.,
some are coated with a matte varnish.
DIY: essential to use a water based varnish before using a lacquer if you want to customize the finish. any solvent based lacquer will shrivel the paint image unless it is sealed with a water based varnish.

A variety of cameos and images are available. Would you like a custom order of specific colours and finishes? Contact me, or comment on this post.
...might post direct paypal links under each lot, if i can figure out shipping, otherwise let me know which lots you would like and we can work out a paypal invoice.
