[QUOTE="WalnLiz, post: 14980, member: 147"] Sorry to have to disagree with you Golddigg, but i wouldn't scratch the crap out of a new Plastic pan. Wash the grease off yes. Deep scratches on the bottom of your pan catch the gold in the scratches and prevent them from smoothly flowing to the bottom front of the pan during the forward wash. Same with the "Backwash", deep scratches in the bottom make it difficult for the black sand to flow freely to the back of the pan. Gravity separates the gold during the swirling action and the easier it slides on the bottom of the pan the easier it is to concentrate it to one specific spot. ( my opinion only). Cheers Wal.
