I am delighted to have found this community! Browsing the site I've seen so much collective quality knowledge being shared by experts it's great. This is the only site I've found in browsing the last couple of years that references and links to Perplxr and some other "elite" videos.

 

Long story short, my interest in collecting and tinkering with mechanical watches was renewed a coule of years ago and it's been a fun ride. Hoping to be able to contribute in the future.

 

Kind Regards to all....

      B-Dip residue?

      By pent · Posted

      So I was cleaning an especially dirty balance spring with B-dip because several turns were sticking together.  However, after a wash and dry, it seems there are more turns sticking due to the B-Dip.  I can see it clearly in-between the spring turns and it is not evaporating.  I even stretched the spring upwards a bit to let them air out and they continue to stick.  This is after two washes.  You can still see the liquid between the springs. Not sure if anyone has seen this, but I don't know if this is an indicator of my dip going bad or being contaminated.  I would rise with IPA, but the stud and collet aren't pinned--they are either glued or shellacked so I won't risk it.  If I keep seeing this, I'll probably switch back to a heptane or naphtha for this type of cleaning, but I wanted to see if anyone else has seen this with B-Dip.

      I only watched the start, but he's out on magnification by a factor of 10. It's 7X to 45X, not 450X
