Sheaffer Balance - Need To Fix Section To Barrel - No Uk Shellac Sources

[DrRoger]

Hi,

Some time ago I bought a nice green Sheaffer Balance lever fill in green - now the section has separated somewhat from the barrel. I understand I need shellac to fix this but I can't find a resource in the UK (checked the fora here and looked on the usual sites but nothing.) Any advice re sources of shellac and just fixing things most welcome. I guess this is a FAQ hence apologies for asking. Thanks. R

Thanks for the info - I did hear that it was now an issue to ship shellac via the mail in the UK but I don't know why this should be the case. Mind, the UK can be odd. R

You can buy premixed shellac in the UK from the Pendragons, here or here.
