Otherwise see if you can find someone to tumble it for you.. Theres e few forum members here who do tumbling, I'm sure one of them will probably post and let you know if that will do the trick.

RE: burnt bottle - 3/15/2005 11:23:31 PM    flasherr Posts: 538 Joined: 5/7/2004 From: Abilene Texas Status: offline This is the best stuff and cheapest I have found for cleaning bottles especially painted label bottles. I cleaned alot of burned bottles this summer and did wonders. Try it on a small area first on a painted label. It wont scratch the glass. As you can see in the back ground im cleaning some bottles that have rust deposits and dingy labels. I have to meet with the local museum this week about a display and donate a few things. I am hoping the museum can help me locate some dumps or gain permission for digging. I have corresponded with one of the head people and I have her interest peeked about digging and outhouse :) Brian PS its only $1.67 at walmart Attachment (1) < Message edited by flasherr -- 3/15/2005 11:24:13 PM > _____________________________ Know anyone around Abilene Texas that digs?

If you want, look in this forum (cleaning) for the thread, "before and after" to see what it can do. I am also cleaning a burnt bottle and it's working well. It does take repeated washings to remove all of the burn stains...as suggested, be carefull with the ACLs. _____________________________ Keep Those Fingernails dirty, *GARY* ~Diggermeister~ (in reply to Tony14) Post #: 4

Sweet I'm gonna have to get some and give it a whirl, I've got a lot of burn victims that just really weren't worth all of the time and effort of a 000 steel wool polish. Thanks guys!

I sprinkle some in the bucket then as i clean bottles i am over it so excess powder goes in bucket and let bottles soak and it seems to help so put some in the water and let them soak between scrubbing Brian _____________________________ Know anyone around Abilene Texas that digs?
