2.1 Gather Materials wire stripper, vinyl gloves, safety goggles, coca cola bottle, cold

caustic liquid, 14 awg wire or smaller

Page 3: Cold Caustic Process of Nanocoating Copper Wire

Have a spray bottle of vinegar for safety. If caustic gets on your skin spray vinegar on the area

Purchase bare copper wire will make the job easier. Size 14 awg

wire or smaller

If you can only locate coated wire, The Klein Tools - Katapult Wire Stripper/Cutter will

make this task MUCH easier

2.5 Use pliers to bend the end of the wire back towards itself

Page 14: Cold Caustic Process of Nanocoating Copper Wire

Notice that the end of the wire is NOT touching itself
