I don't have snake skin, so I'll just get some very course wet and dry or emery paper and drag it across the smooth plastic from side to side for a micro filter, or do circles, whatever suits you. Great idea, thanks.

Ahoj Chris, cleaning to pure gold into the river??? WOW...That is the high level panning I want to achieve... I did buy material for cleanup sluice, but as I learned to use XP pans, I didn't build the cleanup sluice yet... No need... So, your statement, that XP pans are as good as cleanup sluice is true. At least for small amounts of gold.
