If you pop the dent out, would it only be half-full? :haha: I never saw any of it. It has an interesting can that would look good in a display.
 
windwalker,
What are the incredients? The reason
I ask is I was wondering what would make it
smell bad. :hmm:
snake-eyes :hatsoff:
 
snake-eyes it smells like you have your face 2 inches from a hot tub of tar.it realy gets in to your head, but to its credit it one of the best rust preventers ive seen . it is mixed with hot water one fl.oz to one quart of near boling water.
it realy did live up to what it did.they dont say what is in it.

That photo is of 3 Confedederate soldiers that were captured at Gettysburg. I Have a book titled "Getteysburg, Then and Now" by William Frazanito in which he compaired original photos of the battlefield taken just after the battle by any number of contemporary photogs with photos he took in the modern time. I believe he did his research in the 1960's. Man, them boys looked like a rough crew.
 
I would empty the can, put a little air to it until the dent was blown out, then put it on Ebay for a couple hundred bucks.
