dr J F Churchhill's specific remedy bottle cleaning - 7/1/2004 7:41:16 PM    mysecrets88   Posts: 17 Joined: 4/22/2004 Status: offline Hello again, I have this bottle that I recently dug, it came out of a dump site with alot of ashes. There is a fine film on the outside of the bottle. Have been using some soap and water, then went to a soft cleaner oxy clean, still with no luck in removing film. Is the next step trying a little stronger chemical IE muratic acid? Benn finding some fun bottles but the fine almost like a calcium type deposit where they sat flat against is proving to be very annoying. Any info on this bottle is apprciated as I can't find any info on the web so far. Attachment (1) Post #: 1

I did find your bottle or one like it, it has "HYPOPHOSPHITES OF LIME AND SOSA" on the side, does yours? The one I found is in old bottle price guide, list for $20.00-30.00, hope it cleaned up real nice for you! (in reply to mysecrets88) Post #: 3

He had listed a rare dark green color one so I e-mailed him and he gave his opinion. I wish I had gotten to this excavation site earlier, the owner gave me permision to dig but he said the contractor filled his truck with bottles. Most of the bottles I have found have been early. So you almost snooze you almost lose. PAT, WILL PSOT A PICTURE OF 2 OTHER BOTTLES FOUND THERE TONIGHT (in reply to mysecrets88) Post #: 5
