    Always good results with this. There is some residue on the surface of the molten metal when casting, but this can be carefully scraped off.

    This is very good - it melts at a low heat and, although there is residue, it separates easily and can be scraped off while the metal is molten. The results are great - clear definition and more robust than you might expect - swords on figures do not break easily. If a figure is broken, it is easy to remelt it. I have used paint stripper first, but actually the paint also can be removed as residue during smelting.

    Model metal

    This metal gave good results - clear detail, yet not too soft. There was a little bit of residue when I melted the metal, but I simply scraped it off the service.
