[QUOTE="Tathradj, post: 151607, member: 2436"] Hi Chris, Too true mate. Give every thing a rinse in warm soapy water before using it all. Soap loves gold. It removes any thin film of oil and also breaks the surface tension. A few spots of Finnish in your pan will cause the gold to drop straight to the bottom of your pan. . [i]PS: Do the rubber mats need to be washed or rinsed before using them? I know rubber and plastic products tend to have a thin "film" of Oil on them that wears off over time with a wash or scrub.[/i] [i]I've read oil is an enemy of gold, particularly fine and flour gold.[/i] [/QUOTE]
