Fallout Prop Nuka Cola Clear

I have recently decided to add onto my Fallout collectables collection my creating Fallout Nuka Cola Props. I created eight Nuka Colas and this happens to be Nuka Cola Clear. Partial credit goes to for the creation of the labels.

I am also providing instructions on how to make such an item. Remember, if you injure yourself in the creation of this item, I am not responsible.

---What you will need---
-1 Mexican Coca-Cola 355ml (12 fl oz.)
-1 to 5 American Diet Coca-Cola 8 fl oz. (For extra bottle caps to reseal the Mexican bottle)
-1 Bottle Cap Opener
-1 Hammer
-1 Bottle of Tonic Water (At least 12 fl oz.)
-1 Instant Krazy Glue Pen
-1 Pair of Scissors
-1 Roll/Plastic Dispenser of Invisible Tape
-Nuka Cola Cap Printouts from [link] .
-Nuka Cola Clear Label (Each label can be printed out in MS Paint, dimensions per label after copying and pasting if done properly from sheet: 367 X 140 Pixels.) Printout from [link] .
-1 Utility Plyers with Serrated Saw Attachment (one that won't cut you, I used a Gerber Suspension)
-1 Soap Pad

---Instructions---

-1. Printout the required items mentioned above.

-2. Use the serrated saw attachment from the utility plyers to carefully scrape off the painted label off the Mexican Coca-Cola bottle(Doing so in a rough manner can scrape or even crack the bottle). This can take anywhere from fourty minutes to two hours. This is not manditory, however, strongly recommended, as the paper printout label becomes a bit translucent when the bottle is held upto the light after the label is applied, and if the Coca-Cola label is not peeled off, it becomes noticable.

-3. Use a Soap Pad around the area where the painted label was. This will loosen up and remove any really small specs of painted label that the Untility Plyers may have missed. Dry the bottle afterwards.

-4. Pry off the lid to the Mexican Coca-Cola with a bottle cap opener and enjoy it. You deserve it .

-5. Carefully clean out the bottle with Soap and hot water after enjoying your drink(This ensures that no Coca-Cola will mix with the Tonic Water, creating an awkward color). Let the bottle dry.

-6. While letting the bottle dry, carefully remove the cap(s) off the American Diet Coca-Cola(s) with a bottlecap opener as you will need them to reseal the Mexican bottle later (The Mexican Coca-Cola Bottlecaps are lower grade aluminum and are red. We want silver caps for this Nuka Cola). It can take several caps to get it right. Enjoy your drink and share some with your friends .

-7. Open the Tonic Water and pour it into the empty Mexican Coca-Cola Bottle(If there is little or no spare space up at the top, remove a bit of the Tonic Water).

-8. Try to seal the bottle using the American Diet Coca-Cola bottlecap(s). Shake lightly to see if you hear any carbonation escaping. If so, use the hammer and care fully hammer around bottlcap uptop (Hammering in the middle flattens the cap down, forcing the edges to popup). Once you no longer hear carbonation after shaking, turn the bottle upside down, and observe for leakage. if there is any, hammer as necessary or try another cap.If there is no leakage, repeat the leakage test two more times.

-9. Cut out a cap printout, flip it upside down, and with the Krazy Glue Pen, apply some super glue to the upside-down printout.

-10. Apply the cut out cap with the superglue rightside up to the Mexican Coca-Cola Bottlecap and let dry.

-11. Cut out the labels and use the invisible tape to apply them to the bottle. There are several ways this can be done, so find out a way that works best for you.

-Note: This concoction is drinkable, however doesn't exactly tastes the best.
