    Troybud... if the stainless is welded check and make sure they never welded it with steel.. If so you will have to cut it off. And the bottom of some sinks have a metallic type of coating.. I have ran into this numerous times when buying stainless at my scrapyard.. I usually let it slide as stainless until the place I sell to complains. Some stainless will even rust if left in the elements too long. and there is a 20-40 cent difference (where I am anyways) between 304 and 316.. If you come across thicker stainless check it out because a lot of 316 stainless is marked on machines. Just rambling on so I will stop lol..
