Pickle and deoxidizer

Jewelry Discussion

I would only like to ask two little questions. Which pickle compound
is used for gold and which deoxidizer is used to deoxidize gold
casting grain while melting? Thank you for reading, and best regards
all, Will

Hi Will,

I use the same Sparex and pickle pot I use for silver when I pickle
gold. I use “Matt’s Casting Flux” (a powder) sprinkled on a gold or
silver melt… don’t know that it’s actually functioning as a
deoxidizer, though.

Hope this helps,
Dave
