[QUOTE="Patriot007, post: 1912306, member: 111276"] You want, Tempilaq 399*C, 750*F Liquid. You can fined it in the welding section at the hardware store. Welders and weld inspectors use this to check the temp on the welds, when welding. Well, welders use a Tempilaq markers, YOU SIR want the Tempilaq liquid. There are videos on YouTube showing you how to apply it while annealing brass.

I apply it on the neck and down about half way, down the case, so I can see where the annealing stops. I have annealed a many a piece of brass by finger and torch and I will say this.
