    Default Shellac bottle replacement?

    Odd question here: I just sac'd a pen and when I screwed the cap back on the bottle, it started cracking. I didn't force it any more but I'm certain it won't seal properly, if not now then soon. It is one of those small bottles with a brush inside of it. Anyone know where I can find similar, empty bottles?

    What about a empty nail polish bottle?
    At least on the German Amazon site you can also buy them empty.

    I currently have Amazon.com set up to show me prices in GBP and delivery to UK but if you type "empty varnish bottle with brush" you will get some results for what you need.

    My shellac bottle's cap deteriorated in the same fashion a couple years ago. I'm still pressing the cap over the threads and using the brush until I pick up replacement shellac.
