When melting some sheet lead I got the skittles effect, a beautiful rainbow in the pot. I hear this is normal and proves that it is pure. There is a film that can be skimmed off that takes the color with it, then it reforms later on. Should you leave this film on or keep skimming it off till it is all gone?
I did skim it off but saved it just in case, and made ingots for when I get a mould for my muzzleloader. Which brings me to my second ?. Do muzzleloader bullets get lubed? Nothing I have seen anywhere mentioned it. TIA.
