Very smart thinking! Does make me think about a post I read, I think it was on Fasttech, where someone drilled an atty, and then was complaining that it had rust stains. They were blaming the mfg., when it was they who contaminated it. Wayne
Good tip on using lemon juice and salt Yeah SS is a bitch to drill. I bought some Cobalt drills for drilling SS and still struggled drilling out the air hole.
No stains or streaks on the SS, I guess the lemon and salt completely dissolved it before it could bind in the pores. I know about SS contamination as you would never clean a SS firearm unlike a blued one with #0000 steel wool unless you wanted to ruin your firearm.
FYI, broke a bit in a fastech kayfun clone, and this works great. If your in a hurry, "steeping" it in hot water seems to accelerate the process. Thanks, blkbd.
