Ive had this WDC system with a BAD CRACK, I mean it went all the way thru the bowl and almost half the bowl in length. Pictures here of the amazing results achieved. Still visible but WOW, Im not going to shy away from a cracked estate for $2 anymore.

Find the cracks in the first pic. Second the locations are revealed.

Well the rusticated bowl helped to disguise things mostly. I used JB Weld then coated the whole thing with India Ink. Doctored up the existing grooves with a dremel and burr tool were the JB was, then sanded to further disguise the whole deal. Applied Carnuba wax which smeared the India Ink darkening the wax and stained the bowl a little darker hiding the JB Weld dark spots even more.
