A while back I posted about a neat little product I found called Sugru. Sugru is a hand-moldable silicon putty. There’s all sorts of details on the site… but basically once I saw this, I had to get it to put a lip guard on my Ti mugs – I love these mugs, but they can sting when drinking hot beverages.
This stuff is pretty easy to work with – it’s kinda like tacky play-dough. It took me about 5 minutes to do this quick job. I’m not much of a sculptor, so don’t judge my uneven application :)
Here’s a pic of my first shot at it – this is after testing it (successfully) and putting it through the dishwasher.
Important to note: you must make sure your hands are completely dry when you start, otherwise it gets a little gummy.
And for the gram weenies: One sachet of Sugru (which is all that was needed here) is 5g. :)
