Some of the UK plastic bottle sites seem to offer an 18mm flip top cap that would appear to fit the Vallejo 17ml bottle. Like the black tops show for Mission, but the ones I found were white. I would like to find some as well, because I use a paint palette and like to squeeze out measured amounts of paint, but the eyedropper tops do seem to clog on me.
You can order them for US$0.02-0.05 per cap from China, but the minimum order is 10,000 pieces!
Please let us know if you find a source, especially if you can confirm the 18mm cap diameter and thread density (410?)
Thanks, Jeff
(Hey! Long time lurker, I post infrequently but the thread about good forums and good forum participation made me realize I should chime in more. Anyhoo...)
So a question as I've had the same issue with dropper bottles (Vallejo/Reaper/Army Painter): does someone make a compatible replacement lid that would have a flip-top and a small nozzle/opening similar to the Mission Model bottles? I'd think that something that was the right size that would allow one to take the nozzle off the aforementioned bottles and replace it with a (more secure, better aperature'd) fiip top would be best of both worlds, yeah? I did a quick search but didn't really see anything but maybe someone's already done the research?
