Jan Received it today. Works great, very soft. Ordered 0.8 and 1mm. However since it is wikkeldraad there is an enamel paint over the wire. Tried different solutions to get rid of it, aceton, terpentine. But it wont solve. Maybe wasbenzine. Well, i.ll keep on trying.

YankeeD Posted July 10, 2019 #123 Posted July 10, 2019 Yes thats possible, but that leaves no nice surface and as the copper is soft it wrinkles and bends like h....
