I am going to purchase some soft lead (x-ray lead sheets) soon.
Since I have a flintlock pistol, I'm going to need pure soft lead only.
With 50 lbs of lead sheets and melting them down, do I need to add any flux?
I don't want to mix tin and antimony back in (I may also purchase wheel weights, clip on/stick on too) and that's what flux does - reduces (opposite of oxidizes) tin and antimony back into the lead.
I already have some clip on wheel weights, so I shouldn't have to flux right? They have a lot of antimony and tin in em.
Thanks!
