Vallejo bottles?

[El Matador]

Hello friends,

i was wandering how people transfare paint from a pot of paint into the vallejo dropper bottle? I recently ordered a few and now i have them im sort of lost as to how to get the paint inside them, has anyone done this before?

Thanks, El Matador

I transferred some of my old Reaper paints into those bottles. I used a small square of waxed paper, taped it into a funnel, and stuck it into the top of the bottle. This made it a lot easier to pour the paint into the new bottle.

When I transfered my GW paints into \"vallejo like\" dopper bottles I just poured it strait from the pot to the bottle, obviously, with the dropper pulled out. I did waste some paint with a spill or two though. If you\'re careful this shouldn\'t be a problem. Whatever you do though, make sure to do it somewhere safe. I.E. on the kitchen table or over a large plastic bag (that doesn\'t have holes! and wont just let the paint hit the bag and roll off onto the carpet or whatever is underneath)

Yeah thats the problem with the vallejo bottles, you cant unsrew the top the only way to get paint in or out is through the dropper, i had originaly thought a syringe would be good but i think it might only be a one or two use option.

Any other ideas guys?

the dropper section at the top does come out of the botlles.
