[QUOTE="JeffVN, post: 365197, member: 2261"] forget teh sticks they are worthless; you have to remove the casefrom the heat to apply the stick and getting the stick to melt is a pain (at least that was my reaction when i tried them). Get the quickdrying liquid that goes on and dries to a colored paint look. The paint "melts at the set temperature" I agree the Ken Light device is wonderful. I have used it in combination with the tempique liquid to anneal my 7WSM, 308, .260, 284, 6x47 lapua ...and soon my 338 LM Improved brass. I have dedicated annealing brass that i run through the ken light to see if the flames on my torches are right. When they do what they are supposed to and melt at the proper time, but not too hot, i run my real brass through..... In the context keep the ruined brass but make it clear is only annealing demo somehow. I used magic markes on the base of the brass so that i do not mistake it for my real brass. Keep at it. The results will be well worth the effort. [/QUOTE]
