Vijaysar Wood Glass : Why Isn’t My Water Changing Colour? (Troubleshooting Guide)
Most Vijaysar wood glass questions come after you’ve started using it: the water looks different from what you expected, there’s a mark you didn’t notice before, or you’re not sure whether something is normal. Here are the most common problems and what they usually mean.
1. The Water Isn’t Changing Colour
Possible causes
- Not enough soak time. Colour develops gradually over several hours. A short soak may leave the water nearly clear.
- The glass is near the end of its usable life. After roughly 60 to 90 days of regular use, the effect tapers off.
- The wood may not be genuine Vijaysar. Low-grade or substitute wood may not tint the water at all.

What to do: Soak the water overnight. If a new glass still gives no tint after a few nights, contact the seller. If it’s been in use for months, it’s likely time to replace it.
2. The Water Turns Dark Very Quickly
Possible causes
- Dye. Genuine Vijaysar colours water gradually. A rapid, bright change can point to a treated or dyed surface.
- A fresh glass in its first uses. Some natural colour can come out more strongly in the first few days.
What to do: If the colour appears almost instantly and looks artificial, be cautious. Ask the seller for details on how the wood is processed, and stop using it if you’re unsure.
3. A Musty or Sour Smell
Possible cause: Trapped moisture. This usually means the glass wasn’t dried properly between uses.
What to do: Rinse with plain water and dry it thoroughly in a ventilated place. If the smell persists, or you see dark or fuzzy spots, the glass may have mould. Stop using it and replace it.
4. Dark, Fuzzy or Black Spots
Possible cause: Mould, especially in humid weather or after poor drying.
What to do: Don’t keep using it. It isn’t worth the risk, and wood is porous enough that it’s hard to clean properly.
5. White Film or Marks
Possible cause: Mineral deposits from hard water, or residue left from drying.
What to do: Rinse with plain water and let it dry fully. If it comes back, try filtered water. Avoid soap or harsh scrubbing.
6. Cracks or Leaking
Possible causes
- Heat or sun exposure, hot water, or dry air near a heater
- A knock or drop
- A flaw in the wood
What to do: A leaking glass isn’t usable. Stop using it and contact the seller, especially if it’s a new purchase. To avoid cracks, use room-temperature water, keep it away from heat and sun, and store it carefully.
7. A Bitter or Woody Taste
Possible cause: The wood is naturally astringent, so a mild woody taste is normal. Water that tastes strongly chemical or varnish-like is not.
What to do: A mild woody taste is expected. If you notice a chemical or artificial taste, stop using it and check the seller’s details.
8. Rough Patches or Small Splinters
Possible cause: A natural wood surface, or a finish that wasn’t smoothed well.
What to do: Run a finger over the surface carefully. If there are splinters, don’t use the glass for drinking, and contact the seller.
When to Contact the Seller
- A new glass leaks, is cracked or has splinters
- The water never changes colour or changes instantly and brightly
- There’s a chemical smell or taste
- The listing doesn’t match what you received
A genuine seller should respond and sort it out. If they don’t, that tells you something too.
