my thoughts from memory is slow cool......you want to keep
it soft and not brittle. oil quench makes it hard...am
kinda fuzzy as I just came back home from the scholarship
funding wine-tasting,(and the naysayers say Napa has the
best wine....SONOMA COUNTY!!! YEAH!....hic!) ;-) ...but
maybe water quench after all, it does soften....hmmmmmm...
just not oil! ;-0
I am about to try to rejuvinate about 4000(or more?) copper
aircraft spark-plug gaskets this way myself. ;-)
