Review on 18-Gauge Tarnish Resistant Real Gold Plated Copper Wire - Perfect For Jewelry Making! by Sabrina Guarino

I purchased the KC gold wire in the 20 gauge. The color is nice and has a look of 14k gold, but the colored enamel peels off when using jewelry pliers to manipulate so to have to be careful with this wire. Upon this wire being peeled, I discovered that this wire is a silver metal of sort. Maybe some kind of aluminum or steel. DEFINITELY NOT COPPER as stated! I don’t appreciate the false advertisement. Anyway, I cut this wire at a diagonal so you can see the cross section, no copper. The only good thing about this wire is that it wraps nicely. It’s not that malleable. So if you mess up then it’s difficult to reshape. I’ve attached photos to better explain the pros and cons.
