    Pouring LEad

    Just poured my first ball head and i have 2 questions that I'm sure can be answered here. I have a hot pot 2. Once done pouring for the day, is their any way to clean the pot or do i just let it alone? Also whats the maximum times you can reheat/remelt a piece of lead?

    Thanks!

    I leave my pot full of lead, but that's the bottom pour model.
    Leaving it full keeps dirt from getting into the spout.

    Remelt wise, no limit to how many times you can melt lead
