How to fix a dented Sigg water bottle

I think when you freeze the bottle, the coating inside the bottle will start to crack and you will lose all the good abilities of a sigg bottle, like neutral smell/flavour, etc. I know it's too late to tell you know, but just a warning.

i tried it. it was working great, but then i left the bottle in the freezer too long, and it ruptured. :-( i should have quit while i was ahead.

Destroyed my bottle.....

Thanks, I think it's at least worth a try. The bottle was wasted anyway. Now it's a usable bottle again.

@1111Davo1 I love the little dents, the thing with mine was (and I don't really think you see it to the full effect in the video) mine had a huge dent in the side that took a significant amount of volume from the bottle. I wouldn't do it for the little dents.

@TheAnonHippie nah, i decided against it. the dents give it character.
btw, if you do it, dont fill it to the top. I'd work out what % increase from water to ice, then take that off the top.

@1111Davo1 Did you try it? How'd it turn out? I know for a fact with my luck I would destroy mine.

@den9 Agreed. Mine just happened to have been half smashed in and unusable. You can't really see it in the video, but it was a little more than dented in my case.

I wonder if doing this could cause the threaded ring in the neck to blow out. I know it's just pressed in and I'd worry this would press it back out. The dents are just part of the charm of using a Sigg and unless the dent was huge I don't think I'd risk trashing my bottle to remove small ones.

@DrunknShooter I definitely agree, it's not worth it unless you have a giant dent in it. In my case, there were three very large dents that were slightly difficult to see the size of in the video. Getting the small dents is "just part of the charm of using a Sigg". SO DON'T TRY THIS UNLESS THE BOTTLE IS TRASHED. THIS IS A LAST RESORT.
