I incinerated a bunch of Fiberglas brush blocks. These contain small brushes which are .013" diameter gold alloy wire about 1/2" long. In my kettle, I now have the ash from the resin and epoxy that was incinerated, white clean Fiberglas cloth pieces, and the wires. Does anyone have a clever way to separate the wires from the bulk of the material? It is very tedious to pick them out. The volume of the batch is about a gallon.
I tried water, which does remove most of the ash, but the rest of the residue is denser and sinks with the wires.
Thanks for any suggestions!
