Ever wonder what the inside of an oil bottle looks like?... Well maybe its just me and my OCD disorder. I recently managed to acquire a few extra oil bottles and after sorting through them into various manufacturers differences in a vain effort to ID what's, British, Canadian, Australian and New Zealand made bottles I decided to sectionalise to see the design on the inside. What I learnt was they were all made from Bakelite, that Bakelite stinks and that there is a unique odor to each countries bottles due to the formulation used with the phenol formaldehyde resin. mmmmm yum.
Left are Australian Bottles, right are the two NZ made bottle
