I'm sure i tried the same with some cheap ones, its nigh impossible to get in to sharpen them , best bet is to buy new and look after them. -
I'd like one of those for my staking set. I bought a cheap roller remover, thinking I could just file the jaws down so that it worked well. It didn't, so I ended up buying the Bergeon version, which does work well. Though, as @Neverenoughwatches points out, you do have to be careful not to damage the roller of staff. Rollers are very soft and easily bent whilst trying to remove or refit. -
then just as I want to see if there is any differences I looked in the balance staff book. So basically with the exception of the super shock whatever that is it looks like they're close enough in length they should be fine. -

Thats what i have scott. Read back a little i posted a few pictures. Basically i put a small quantity of around quarter inch in the bottom of a tin and heated it on a leccy oil burner. It doesn't need much heat, stuck the jewels to the lid with bluetack and the fumes coat the surface pretty quickly although the first i did i left for 5 hours but it does only take 5 mins if that. The coating does seem to come off easily so i am not sure if it actually works, but the stuff is really cheap and worth an experiment or two. I have seen that mix somewhere but vapour coat is supposed to be better. -
Would be interesting to see how well steric acid compares (or not) to the various epilames out there - anyone know the mixing ratios and solvent(s) etc for the steric acid?
