+1 on the experiment with and without the lemishine/simple green. Trial and error.
i want to be clear on something as i want to start using stainless in a cement mixer and need ratio info..."1# of SS pins and 1# of brass and 1# of water "
so does this mean when using pins its a 1 to 1 to 1 ratio. example being 10Lbs SS + 10LBS brass +10LBS water(1.1982844 gallons)
