Remember in my post, that I said you have to use un-coated steel wool. __ Some brands on the market have a protective rust additive, like oil or ? on it!

You want untreated/plain steel wool!
 
Rick is correct about untreated steel wool. Or you can put it in a fire safe container (steel bucket, outside) pour charcoal starter on it and light it off! Once the fire goes out the protective coating will be burnt off and it is good to go in the vinegar!
 
we think alike , i immediatly had put it in the gas fire place and got it cherry hot and then back into the cider vineger
 
I think mine is reddish brown from the potassium permanganate I used. Not sure as I am new to most of this. I would seek better advice from board member "horner 75". His horns look great.
