J. Frank Norfleet Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 The wheel weights I get from my local tire shop have a mixture of pure lead stick on wheel weights. When I separate out the zinc and steel wheel weights I also separate out the stick ons and melt them separate. That way I don't dilute the Pb alloy wheel weights.

Marshall Mike Posted January 31, 2021 Share Posted January 31, 2021 I buy lead, 20/1 from ZIP Metals. Soft, not hard cast, obturates better. Don't have to figure the hardness of mixed lead products, clean, delivered BY UPS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
