Re: Nickel spray
How about a quick etch inside the bottle using hydrofluoric acid, et.
al., then pouring in some aluminized roof coating? A few pour-in,
pour-out cycles should build up a pretty good lining. Has anyone
tried roof coating before for creating a conductive surface? Does it
work?

Richard,
As you stated on TCML, the spary on nickel thing is very thick and clogs
the nozzle. I dont' knwo if you tried, but after i use any spray can, i
always turn is upside down and let is spray for a few seconds to blow off
all
paint/chemicals in the nozzle. If you do this, your nozzle stays a hella lot
cleaner.

Yes! we all know that trick Alan.
But this happens anyway!
Incidentally, my brother replaced the salt water in his caps with lead shot.
The performance of the caps went down somewhat !
Despite all these various arguments for different kinds of caps, many of
which I've tried, I'm sticking to salt water in beer bottles (or champagne
bottles). You can get packs of empty champagne bottles for low cost
in brewing equipment shops. I've never had a bursting, though I'm not
running too hefty power through them. (I run 12000V -at- 90 mA), but
now I'm running them with oil on top of the water. I am a little unsettled
by with fine sparks on top of uncovered water !
Richard.
