So a couple weeks ago found out I got the diabetes-es (think I caught it off a some weirdo i had to stand in line next to a few weeks ago:rolleyes: ). My test strips have a bit of gold in the end. I know each one is only a fraction of a gram, but I decided to keep them in a container and they are piling up fast. The question now is does anyone know of an easy way to get the gold off the test strip without making a big mess? I can start doing some trial and error, and I just started looking around on the web, but as I figured there are some mad scientist PM junkies here, I might get lucky and find one that has a quick and easy solution like soak them in ketchup overnight or some crazy thing like that.
