I got my hands on one of those precious metals acid tests. Bunch of little bottles with nitric and muriatic acid in them. Each one set for a specific karat of gold. It includes a silver testing bottle of liquid as well. I haven't had any trouble using the silver bottle for testing, but I'm getting confusing results with the gold testing liquids. I've watched a few videos and I feel like I'm going about it the correct way, but again, I'm a bit confused as to what I'm seeing and I'm not entirely confident in what to look for exactly. I tried searching this in the forum to no avail. Got about 5300 results and while I did spend some time trying to find answers frustration took over and here I am. I have a good amount of what I believe to be 14k gold scrap in the form of shavings, bits of sheet, and wire. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks everyone!
