    I think they must be bakelite then cause the acetone and MEK both have no effect on the scales. Ill try some epoxy once I finish the brass baking for them. Thanks Again for the help.

    rub the scales until they get warm between your hands. If they smell like sulphur then they are bakelite or hard rubber. If they were celluloid, the MEK and Acetone would have definitely reacted with them.
