OK. I started sorting through my free 5 gallon bucket of wheel weights I got from the local farm coop. I want to make sure that I don't contaminate them with the zinc weights.
Some of the weights have a paint coating, others are shiny (not oxidized). Regardless, there is often informaiton on the weights indicating weight in ounces and/or grams. But the big question...Are the zinc weights indicated to be zinc in any way or is this just a by-guessby-golly proposition. If it is a by-guess-by-golly then how much zinc can be accidently melted into the lead without creating huge issues?
