Get professional, repeatable results with this 10-karat nickel white gold grain, rated Grade 1 by MJSA and specially formulated for white gold pieces.
Special additives help prevent firescale and produce a whiteness comparable to rhodium. Contains deoxidants so you can mix 50% casting scrap with new grain and still get good results.
Applications
Any casting method.
Casting and Cleaning
In general, your casting temperature should be 100˚F (37.7˚C) above the liquidus point (somewhat hotter if the castings are intricate). Use a small amount of high-quality flux when melting with an open flame. We recommend Matt’s Casting Flux™. For further cleaning, mechanical means are recommended.
Re-Using
If you plan to re-use gold castings, remove the copper oxides from the surface in a pickling solution or by mechanical means. We recommend a minimum 1:1 ratio of new grain to used gold. All re-used gold should be clean and free of debris.
Composition
All ingredients are kept in an oxygen-reduced atmosphere during the melting and pouring process to ensure optimum deoxidation.
