[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 3553068, member: 3099"] Find a known zinc weight and a similar lead weight. Whack both on the table (separately). You'll immediately notice that the zinc will almost ring like a bell. You'll feel the difference. The lead will be a dead blow. That's the quickest way and it's fast to pick it up. ETA: Watch the stick on weights too. They can be zinc also. My son once work at a European brand dealership and brought home all the weights they pulled. A bunch were zinc and all the factory weights were zinc as IIRC it's frowned upon pretty heavily in Europe to use lead for anything, but they did a lot of tire servicing there which surprised me. Got some lead on occasion. [/QUOTE]
