Capt Rich Geminski said:I worked for a utility and wiped lead. We used stearine flux to clean and move lead. Looks like a candle, I coat the mold and drop some in the pot to clean lead. Smells bad, but lets the lead flow.
I heat the mold on the lead pot. Call the manufacturer for recommendations. What are you heating the lead in, plumbers pot or smaller? Smaller units probably aren't hot enough...
I'm using a 20 lb Lee or Lyman pot. I am getting some pure lead to try, and will also look into that flux. Ty
