It's funny how it works really well on metals and some paints but barely touches other paints.
BTW, I always use a plastic or glass container. Never a metal one. I tried removing chrome once a long time ago by putting muratic acid in a galvanized bucket. Bad idea.

Yeah, I used a pink plastic bucket I inherited from my auntie. Since there are no women in the house, Disgusting Pink = Disgusting Contents is a pretty solid safety code... ;D

I hear that!
Plus if you throw it out there is no one to complain about it.
