The SS I am talking about is non-magnetic. Magnetic SS strictly goes as shred. Right now shred is paying 8 cents a lb, where as non-magnetic SS is 40 cents a lb. That being said anything I do to remove the tar insulation has to be cost effective, otherwise the profit gets eaten up by the extra cost of removing the tar. Then it is basically wasted effort.
