[QUOTE="TheDoubleD, post: 3897644, member: 43754"] As Shadow rider says, keep your temperature down so the lead just melts. Skim the flotsam and jetsam off. Keep the flat lead and stick on lead separate, use that for Alloying. Separate the zinc from the other garbage and sell it separate., there is a market for it. If you run the temp to high you will contaminate the melt, Lead melts around 621 degrees F, Zinc Melts a 787 degrees F. There is no need to run a lead pot that hot. Slow down, be patient, pay attention. [/QUOTE]
