So, I purchased some Trapper Gloves from PCSOutdoors and got to test them out today.
I went out in the kayak and I could see a paper thin sheet of ice in a few spots. The gloves kept the chill to a minimum. I could feel the cold, but at no time did I feel uncomfortable. I managed two keepers...
Well, certainly not incredible by any means, but I said this year I'd like to find a Coca Cola bottle from my home town (LaPlata, Maryland) Ended up with a bit more than one =)
Would these gloves work? I'd wear some longer arm length rubber ones underneath to keep the mud/creepy crawlies out. http://www.amazon.com/RES...Textured/dp/B0008F5JFI
The vinegar did indeed work! I soaked the problem area over night and when I woke up, I rubbed the barnacle bits with my thumb and they dissolved completely.
He was yelling at the dog to stop getting muddy lol
But he loves the bottles .... perhaps too much as he'll grab for them and attempt to play with them as one would play with a football.
he'll learn =)
Any ideas on how to get the remains of barnacles off bottles? Soak in CLR maybe? I can get the bulky part off, no problems, but the little imprint where they cling on is really tough. I've tried a copper brush, steel wool, and a wood toothpick, but none do the job.
love the kayaking =) I need to figure out how to get all the bottles under the mud. I can feel TONS of them under about a foot or so of soft mud. I can reach through it, but that seems like a good way to lose a finger or three. I also found a super common bromo-seltzer cobalt that I shined up...
Gotta say, I love the new layout! Went out for a bit in the kayak on Christmas Eve and got a few bottles in the crab net =) (6) LaPlata Coca Colas and (2) Silver Spring Coca Colas Chestnut Farms Dairy with cream catcher! My first intact! Ambassador Scotch and my new Change Jar lol Barbasol...
