Can anyone tell me what this orange looking stuff is on the inside of my melting pot is. My lead won't flux worth a crap now and it will not pour right out of my ladle. If I turn the temp up high there seems to be a reddish tint on top of the lead. Also the lead always seems to be dull never shiny. I separate my lead WW from the steel and zinc before melting. This is the first time I have tried casting out of a melting pot. I used my cast iron Dutch oven before with no problems . Any help is much much appreciated.
