Cleaning fragile beer can? - 8/29/2011 8:03:35 AM    Bottles R Us   Posts: 106 Joined: 7/4/2011 From: Welland, Ontario, Canada Status: offline I really need to join a can forum, I have so many can questions I don't want to ask here. They can wait. This one is more urgent: How do you clean a can, that can be broken with the touch of a finger? I can't get Oxalic acid, and citric (lemon juice) would eat it. Is there some commercial rust remover that might work on this? Attachment (1) _____________________________ If you know any dumps of cans or bottles in the Niagara Region, let me know! Even if they're just slicks, I want to dig them! Post #: 1

But there is a Gentleman on here that if he sees it may be able to help you . I have found it amazing what he has done with old beer cans as for restoration . Where are you at Hemi ?
