Really should have left to soak for a few hours/days in soap flakes...For the cost of a new set of mess tins, just may as well bin them and get some new ones..Get some stainless steel ones this time though.

Try this link for Dutch ones, call first though to check they are SS. http://www.mashcamping.co.uk/shop/product_details.asp?p_id=1915

Wire wool?

 

[willowherb]

thanks.. id tried that but the mr muscle has actually eaten into the alli.leathal stuff to metal

If I were you ditch the old ones and buy some new ones, if the Mr. Muscle has eaten into the aluminium there is nothing you can do.

I might be a bit biased as I know the manager but give www.mashcamping.co.uk a go.

You could try some "oven bright" You can buy it at tescos for a large bottle, bout £4 a throw. It's designed for ovens and racks etc, but ive used it on just about anything, Simply put your tins in the ziplock bag with some of the stuff and leave overnight.

Yes he is, and most times he gives me more than the usual discount. How long have you known him?

Got to be about ten years now

He used to have so much gear in the old shop, not as much these days with the smaller one...

He has given me a bit over the 20% on occasions, depends what it is I'm buying though

Did you ever try that HQ84 or whatever it was called, some real tat in that place!

What and where is HQ84, I've never heard of them. maybe we should carry this conversation over some where else I think we might have hijacked this post.
