Thread: Who has too much lead?

The tire shop I use will sell a 5 gallon bucket for $40. If he has 1 or more I'll buy them if I need them or not. While the bucket is sitting in the truck I'll have 4 buckets on the driveway. One for trash, stick ons, lead based wheel weights and zinc with scrap metals. When I do a melt down, the clips go in with the scrap metals.

Good point Wannabe.
Start with a cold pot full of wheel weights or other lead pieces. The heat will cook out any moisture. Never add new stock to a hot pot.
