Gray phosplate coating

I used a candy thermometer to help me regulate the temp. Just follow directions.

Yes great tip. I know this from experience; keep it around 185*F / 85*C... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/beers.gif[/img]

I used a thermometer from a turkey frier.

I was never able to get the phosphate finish as dark as the original finishes I've seen using these chemicals. A nice grey yes but not the crystalline near black finish I would like to duplicate, especially on the pulleys.

I get my chemicals from Lauer Waeponry.

You can use a ceramic hot plate &amp; pyrex bowls for small parts and bolts.
