When my main spring broke on the 1861 repro lock plate it had been in the Brownells Steel White overnight. It had not been touched. The solution and lock plate were both at the same temp. as they were both stored in my garage. No agitation. Just sitting in the solution. Pulled it out and the spring was broken in two pieces. Now this spring was probably only twenty years old.
