I've managed to scrounge up around 8 pounds of pewter that I want to melt
into small ingots. I have a few questions I need answered before I do this.
1) This might be a dumb question but I need to ask it. Do you need to flux this melt?
2) I want to use mini muffins tins so I got a used one. Does it make a difference
whether it is aluminum or steel?
3) Is it OK to coat the tin with Kroil as a release agent? (Last time I tried to pour
lead in a corn bread muffin tin (steel I believe) it turned out to be a disaster and I
had to torch the lead ingots out of the mold.)
4) If Kroil is not the answer to getting a good release from the muffin tin, what are
the alternatives?
TIA,
F
