    Aye no doubt but the days of selling laudanum over the counter are past and so is tinplate kit.

    I agree with you Poly Hive. l’ve had Thomas stainless steel kit for the last 25 years and it’s still as good as new.

    Tin cans which contain human food are sprayed with an internal coating of food safe lacquer which is then oven baked to dry it. Too much coating is as bad as too little as it can peel off. Painting by hand internally is likely to give a poor and too thick coverage prone to peeling..

    I would confine tin extractors to a museum.
