Can this be used on mugs or dishes? It says it's non-toxic. Can you drink out of a cup that is repaired with this? does work on metal and plastic?

hello l. if the dishes are dishwasher safe..would not think that this product would harm. there is a warning on label regarding fine china, painted glassware, painted mugs, aluminum, and enamel coated items.. itmes one wouldn't reallly clean in a dishwasher) they have a website: www.lemishine.com and a toll free number 888-336-2582 for more direct info from manufacture. this was a good solution here as our state banned phosphate dishwasher soap..which without, the hard water leaves such residue. hope that this helps.

Yes/no....if you don't wash and dry immediately after use, water spots will form and some dark residue will remain. Don't fret if that happens...you can purchase a bottle of copper cleaner and clean/buff any residue off. I don't have to do this very often as long as I'm diligent about cleaning and drying them after each use. This mug is pure copper inside/out. Others are copper exterior only and an alloy inside which is easier to keep clean. Depends on if you want a full copper mug...I did

No I would not think it would be safe because it could melt the plastic . Also if they did the metal would become hot and possibly burn the child. I would recommend heating the liquid in something else then pour it in this cup.

I am not sure. I only wash dishes by hand. It is a great cup and I love it but it broke, I loved it so much that I kept buying more. So far I have had 3. If I had more money I would buy another despite how easy they break. You need to be really careful not to bump it into other dishes, or anything for that matter. The glass is delicate. Not borosilicate.

You should never drink out of straight copper. It needs a liner. It is a heavy metal and any contact with a soda like drink will make it transfer into the drink. It is a hazard.

I don't know. My great-nephew drinks milk out of his. I do know that the finish will not survive the dishwasher. His first mug was put in by mistake and never worked again.

It isn't supposed to damage the metal since it dries relatively quickly. I was nervous about it though and did cover the metal parts as best I could (using plastic shopping bags or glad press n seal) and tried to concentrate the spray on the crystals. You could always spray your cloth and then wipe, or even fill a small cup with the liquid and sort of "dip" the crystal parts. If it is something antique or very important to you, I would remove the crystals to clean them. I haven't seen any ill-effects on my metal parts after using this. I don't clean it too often ...a few times a year maybe. I just dry-dust it the rest of the time. It isn't supposed to damage the metal since it dries relatively quickly.

Not mine. I wash it after each use...and don't see any corrosion. The one I had before this one..same brand/model...lasted me several years...until one day I drove off with it on the roof. I'd done that before...and it survived, but I missed seeing it the last time. I love the mug...and it keeps my coffee hot for hours.

I would not use it on anything where it can touch plastic. It may not affect it immediately, but this product, while excellent for cleaning actually metal electrical contacts is not the best for any contact with plastics. .. . . unless it is immediately flushed off with something like isopropyl alcohol. Even then. . . it might not be a good idea. Instead, try using something like Simple Green on a Q-tip and then follow that up with rinse.

I don't know whether the type of plastic of which the cup is made would be safe for hot drinks. I can say that, if you could get the cup to work at all with the top on, then using it for hot drinks would not be a good idea and would probably be a bit dangerous. I do not recommend this cup at all even for cold drinks - I especially wouldn't recommend it for hot.

I guess you could. I would wash out the metal cup afterwards, but I don't believe it would hurt the system. I don't have the user's manual though, so I can't advise as to what they recommend.

I use it on all cold liquids, I just let it soak if milk is used in it to get the milk out of all the nooks and crannies. :) I use a Dr. Browns bottle cleaner on the straw, looks like a pipe cleaner. Works great for the straw and the mouth piece.

I have used Hot Stuff to repair ceramic figurines, ornaments, cups, plates, etc. I wouldn't trust using any coffee cup with the handle reattached just for the danger of hot coffee in your lap if the repair fails but it does work. This is the best super glue I have found and I have tried a lot of them. I find the "Gap Filling" Hot Stuff to be more versatile than the thinner "Original" type.

Hi Bill, I haven't used it on glass but I don't know why it wouldn't work. It's great on ceramic, stainless, etc. I would either keep it off the metal or test an inconspicuous spot first as I had another cleaner damage the chrome on my shower door.

I have not tried it on metals but I checked the bottle and it says it can be used on metal. What it CAN NOT be used on is paper products. It has a oil base so it leaves a stain on anything that can't be washed later. I wish there was a way I could send this bottle to someone as I'll never use it.

I do not know. I used it on a baby's dresser. Myself I would not and prefer to drink out of glass or Corelle cups to lessen the risk of chemical exposure. It looks quite nice on the baby's dresser.
