Default Watering can, galvanised on outside only?

I was pouring rusty water on my plants the other day and noted that it's
galvanised on the outside, but only the top inch or so on the inside.

So i'm emptying it each use and putting it away somewhere dry, seems
pointless to me galvanising it at all.

Is that right/normal?


don't see how that's possible Hot dip galvanizing you have to immerse the whole thing in a tank


I was going to suggest that Sir paints the inside with Black Jack (coal
tar varnish), but it seems you can't get that any more. There's probably
a not so good substitute...
