Great advice here. Lead is a soft metal and the soap will stay on there and leave a scent trail for a short amount of time. I know guys who soak sinkers in bunker juice, because they feel it adds to the scent.

Paint will also leave an un natural scent to them for a while too. I like the sand and water bit here. It will work the quickest because the sand will scratch the surface quicker. Great idea that was given here.
