Being Canadian a lot of these are newer learning curves for me. I’m not biased where they’re from, I just like odd

just talked too my spanish gardener,

he said that trade mark is "registered mark" (spanish) .. ... cool

Awesome thank you, odd but decent enough

Back to your original question. I would recommend using Evapo-Rust. It will completely remove all the rust effortlessly. Buff with a cloth.

Thank you Randy, I’ll look and see if I can get some locally

Trevor,

That's an awesome can! I'd never seen one of those until today. What are the dimensions? Is it the same size as a typical US quart can? One of the photos makes it look taller and smaller diameter.

Thanks,
Tony

It’s the same size as any regular US qt. Sorry terrible picture but only one with compassion with me until I get home in a couple weeks

Thanks! That photo shows the size perfectly. It's interesting that the stripes are similar to the Phillips 66 can and (to my colorblind eyes) the orange is close...or the same. Considering that Union Oil is now a Phillips brand. If that's your photo and it's your Phillips can, is it also a Spanish can...or domestic?

Regards,
Tony

The 66 is also mine, it’s a regular American 66. I bought the lot for the aristo more than anything
