My son gave me about 30# of 30% tin Dutch Boy auto body solder, about how much would you put in a pot of WW to enhance the castability?

2% Tin in 10 lbs would be about 2/3 lb.

Ha! too funny!

just yesterday I was brewing up some alloy and in my 10# lee pot I just added about 3 inches of body solder......now to see if I added enough!

Last time I cast I used 4 inches and the bullets were very hard so I used less this time..........guess I better go check some!
