<p>[QUOTE="evelyb30, post: 2777114, member: 36"]Silver acids go bad so fast most professional joolies don't even bother with them. We do a scratch test on a stone and use 18k acid instead. The mark "curdles" up and turns whitish if it's silver. The faster the change happens the purer the silver is. (100% silver like silverplate goes lightning quick)[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
