Chipped Dome

Hi everyone. last night I was putting my daisy wheel on the dome and it slipped, chipping the dome and exposing a piece of ceramic under the green glaze. What should I put on it to keep it from getting worse and to seal it back up? JB Weld?
Here are a couple of pics
Thanks for any advice

JB would work but I'd just leave it be. It won't hurt a thing.

Just consider it a battle scar, and keep on Eggin'. :laugh: Our whole dome fell off a few years back, and even though it landed on concrete, SOMEhow all we ended up with was a chunk taken out in just about the same place your chip is. :blink: Been cooking along just fine for 7 years since the mishap.

What is wrong with all of you? That chip is the perfect excuse to buy a second egg! So easily justified to spouse! "I don't want to buy another egg, I HAVE too, look at this broken dome!". Then of course continue using both!
-
If it were mine, I'd cap it with some JB Weld to protect the chipped area. Worry about color later or not at all.

Wait a few cooks and it will be covered naturally.

Thanks for the info....and I like the idea of it having a battle scar :laugh:

Egger66: We sealed ours using a few low n slows... :laugh:
FYI...This egg is about 14 years young. We've been cooking on it with the 'battle scar' about 7 years now.

Now...that's what I'd call an "Old Friend"!!I spent most of my money on good bourbon, and bad women...the rest, I just wasted!!

You aren't kidding!!! Trust me when I say there was a collective gasp, then everything went into sssslllooooowwww motion when that dome fell!! Great testimony to the fabrication of the Egg. She has served us well, and continues to do so.
