Hey all, how are things. I have recently received a batch of GF mesh watch bands and I was wondering if any one would care to share any tips or methods for these in particular. Bands of this type>>>

Other than a good incineration I am not sure if these should be done like other GF scrap. Generally I just break up GF and incinerate and dissolve in 50/50 nitric.

Thanks Mike.
 
I try to remove anything magnetic and process them like regular GF. There is a lot of surface area for the acid to attack so be careful on how much you try to push your reaction.
