[QUOTE="Buck Fever, post: 1943420, member: 113501"] I've done it many times to normalize 4130 tube welds. I used a hotplate to preheat aluminum so I haven't done soot on aluminum. When testing soot on brass, we used propane soot since acetylene was not available.

I'm not sure if propane soot is any different but there wasn't enough to make the laser or infrared camera read reliably. [/QUOTE]
