    The cleanest way to Flux lead is to stir it with a wooden stick the carbon from the stick is the best flux; like sawdust without the rubbish floating
    around, Bee's and Candle wax do flux but not very well and they generate too much smoke also makes a mess of your melting pot, Don't melt down
    scrap lead in the pot you cast from only put cleaned lead it that.
