<p>[QUOTE=&quot;evelyb30, post: 9774455, member: 36&quot;]Real bakelite only comes in black and dark brown.&nbsp; Neither responds to chemical tests.&nbsp; The only way I ever heard of getting them to react was to take a dremel to them and either smelling the drill hole or lighting the drilled bits on fire. (not recommended <img src="styles/default/xenforo/smilies/tongue.png" class="mceSmilie" alt=":p" unselectable="on" /> ) The pretty colors are really catalin. Red sometimes responds to baking soda and sometimes, I&#039;m told, to simichrome. But only sometimes. It&#039;s one of the catalins and it doesn&#039;t always react.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
