"I remove the hot glass portion of the lamp from the base and set it on its side. Then I place the base of the lamp with the bulb over the area where the wax has clumped. You will need to prop the lamp up against something so that it stays in place.…"

LOTS of White Powder
Started this discussion. Last reply by Sgt Pepper Nov 11, 2016. 7 Replies 1 Like
I recently bought a squiggle on ebay that needed some work. I have dealt with plenty of cloudy lamps and have had little troubles, but this lamp is different. There is a ton of white powder floating…Continue
Auras Glow Fluid Swap
Started Oct 6, 2016 0 Replies 0 Likes
So the Auras Glow lamps seem to have oil instead of wax, so the lamps heat up and get running rather quickly. I may be wrong because i don't own one, but they have very good flow for small lamps. I…Continue

Wax not sticking to Coil
Started Mar 31, 2014 0 Replies 0 Likes
My new Mediterranean was in rough shape when I got it. Cloudy, wax separated, and not sticking to coil. The wax is now recombined. The lamp is slightly less cloudy. I can't get this wax to stick to…Continue

Mediterranean Leg Bent

I just got a med finally, but one of the legs is bent towards the center. It is driving me crazy. What is the best way to bend it straight again. It is not like one continuous curve either. It is a…Continue

Bryan replied to Sgt Pepper's discussion Wax at top? HELP"By open and boil you mean pour it out and cook it on the stove or just leave the lid off with the water out and let it run without water?"
Sgt Pepper replied to www.6-ft-under.com's discussion Change Lava color on vintage?"Goo kit dye should work, but I think it might look better with dyed water. That was probably a blue green globe, but the blue faded over the years.It would stay more original that way in my opinion. "
Sgt Pepper replied to Sgt Pepper's discussion LOTS of White Powder"So I have an update on the lamp. I refilled it with distilled water, glycerin, and surfactant from a goo kit. It flows great, but after a few runs it clouded the water. If it continues to cloud I will replace the fluid again and see if it stops…"
Sgt Pepper replied to Rory's discussion Craigslist Finds"Contacted the guy in Detroit and got him to ship me it. This make me feel was better about loosing the juggling clown lamp on ebay a few weeks ago"
Sgt Pepper replied to Tim Gill's discussion Goo kiting a Italian glitter lamp"If there is wax sticking to the lamp then it is likely not cleaned enough. It seems like a heating issue because the wax is not rising and some of it is not melting. "

Lava Shelf
"That room is too well lit. The colors are going to fade!! Put them in the cave, precious! *eats live fish the rest of his life*"
Sgt Pepper replied to Laurie's discussion Looking for a Grande cap"I know this isn't much help, but a few years ago a remember there was a website that sold replacement caps."

Lava Shelf
Put up a shelf with some of my favorite lamps. The wires hanging of the side look pretty bad though
Brad replied to Sgt Pepper's discussion LOTS of White Powder"i agree with trying to filter out the white pieces with a coffee filter. maybe run it through a clean one each time for 5 times (just guessing) and see what happens."
Keith replied to Sgt Pepper's discussion LOTS of White Powder"You might as well try the coffee filter first if it comes to dumping the contents."
Sgt Pepper replied to Sgt Pepper's discussion LOTS of White Powder"I really want to try to save the original fluid and wax for preservation, but that may not be possible I guess. I will probably combine two 32 oz globes instead so I still have the USA flow"
Tim Gill replied to Sgt Pepper's discussion LOTS of White Powder"Its beyond saving, best thing to do would be to get a new globe entirely kiting would be an option as well but the globe will need a lot of cleaning to stop the wax from sticking to the side"

Modulo '70 said… - The Astro Nordic Deluxe is actually the name of your lamp type. Depending on the contents it was also know as 'bubble lamp' (lava), 'Glitter Lite' (slow moving glitter) or 'Living Jewel' (fast moving larger flakes of glitter) like mine! AC

- Hi Kemps. I just checked and it's definitely a Crestworth. (That model was commonly known as a 'Living Jewel' when containing Living Jewel Glitter). Check out my pics for a boxed example. When containing lava, I think it was known as 'Astro Nordic Deluxe'! AC
