We were somewhere around Barstow, on the edge of the desert, when the
drugs began to take hold. I remember Bill
saying something like:

I'm looking at Matt NATO green, should fit the situation perfectly, and
it's relatively cheap :-)

Thanks for the comments.


Use dilute phosphoric acid, which is all Kurust is, to treat the rusty
areas with, first.


As found in Coca Cola apparently!

But apart from that a quick Google has not thrown up any easy suppliers
of it. What sort of figure were you thinking of by saying "dilute"?
Also any suggest sources? There is 85% 125ml available on Ebay but
this is way outside my comfort zone. Where as Kurust maybe out side my
finances for the amount required!

As to the question is it a narrow boat? Unfortunately not, it is a metal
shipping container, a rather rust one :-)
