Starters Lead Wiping Kit
Take the first step into traditional metal finishing with this Starter Lead Wiping Kit, designed for those who want to learn or refine the art of lead loading. Ideal for classic car restorers, panel beaters, and metal fabricators, this kit provides everything needed to complete strong, durable, and authentic repairs.
At the core of the kit are 8 x 30/70 body solder lead sticks (approximately 4kg total)—a trusted choice among skilled craftsmen for their smooth flow and workability. To ensure proper adhesion, the kit includes 500g of high-quality tinning paste, essential for preparing the surface before applying lead.
For shaping and finishing, the kit features two Australian hardwood paddles (one flat and one rounded), along with a tub of specially formulated paddle wax to prevent sticking and allow for smooth, controlled wiping.
To refine your work, an adjustable file holder and 9-tooth body file are included, giving you the ability to accurately shape and finish the lead surface.
An instruction leaflet is also provided, making this kit suitable for both beginners and experienced users looking to maintain traditional techniques.
