UNUSUAL MATERIAL
A common question at Craig Coyne is, “Can you fix this?” quickly followed by a statement like, “I’m not really sure what it is, but I’ve always liked it.”
Figuring out what our customer’s own is part of the repair process at Craig Coyne. It is paramount to a successful job.
Let’s take a piece of plastic, a piece of glass and a natural emerald. They all can look the same, but the plastic will melt in a fire and glass has bubbles that will explode. The emerald may have been “oiled” and it will burn out, making inclusions more noticeable than before the repair.
