BIG JOHN GOLD TESTING KIT – 6-IN-1

The BIG John Gold Testing Kit not only evaluates the Karat and purity of Gold, but it is also a Precious Metal Testing Kit. You can test for Gold, Silver and Platinum.

The 6-In-1 Gold Test Kit consists of 6 bottled solutions and a gold test stone. Four of the solutions are to test the gold Karat: 10k, 14k, 18k, 22k, and then there is a solution to test for silver and another to test for platinum.

The Gold Test Kit is ideal for metal detectorists to see if the gold, silver or platinum ring they found is precious or just bling.

HOW TO TEST THE PURITY AND KARAT OF GOLD

  1. Make a scratch line with the gold piece to be tested on the gold test stone.
  2. Place drops of the different gold test solutions on the line (10k, 14k, 18k, 22k).
  3. Wait for one minute.
  4. Where the scratch line is still visible, that indicates the Karat value.
  5. If the item was made of brass, the scratch line would disappear.

HOW TO TEST FOR PLATINUM

  1. Make a scratch line with the platinum piece to be tested on the test stone.
  2. Place a drop of the platinum test solution on the line.
  3. Wait for one minute.
  4. If the scratch line remains visible, that is a positive test for platinum.
  5. For other metals, the scratch line will disappear, indicating it is not platinum.

HOW TO TEST FOR SILVER

  1. Remove all impurities from the surface of the silver piece to be tested by using a solvent like thinners, etc.
  2. Place a drop of the silver testing solution on the item to be tested.
  3. If it is silver, the drop will become red. The degree of redness depends on the quality of the silver.
    1. On sterling silver (92.5 p.c. silver) the drop will become light red.
    2. On silver plate (100 p.c. silver) the solution will become darker red.
  4. Other metals will not show up as red.

FREE DELIVERY ON ORDERS OVER R3,000

Delivery to Namibia is FREE for all orders over R3,000. For orders under R3,000, we charge a flat rate of R700. This pricing includes all delivery costs, including import tax and VAT, which we pay upfront on your behalf. See the list of areas we deliver to in Namibia below.

Don’t let the term ‘importing’ scare you off. We handle all the necessary paperwork and logistics, making it a hassle-free experience for you. The best part? No hidden fees or unexpected costs upon delivery.

Deliveries to outlying areas, plots, hospitals, universities, shopping centres and other non-residential type properties may incur additional delivery charges. Delivery charges are therefore subject to change, and we reserve the right to requote you on delivery. Should the delivery costs change, we will inform you, and you will have the choice to either pay the difference or cancel your order, in which case we will refund you in full.

Once your order is confirmed, we prepare a “Clearing and Forwarding Instruction” form for you to sign. With that completed, your detector will be on its way. Expect your delivery within 7 working days from dispatch to major areas. Please allow a few days extra for delivery to outlying areas. Our courier does not deliver directly to farms or similar remote sites. In such an instance, the product will be available for collection from the nearest depot in the towns listed below.
