[Majik]

LF a couple clean 55 gal or better drums to use for my mixing station. Anyone have or know where to get them in the GVRD?

There is a guy on craigslist who sells them all the time for around $20... The blue ones with a lid...held syrup or something like that.

I think there is a guy in every city on the planet that sells them all the time on craigslist for $20 :) We have the same guy here -lol

I bought 2 white ones that had vinegar in them and just can't shake the smell in the barrels. I thought this would be pretty easy, I was wrong. Yes I have seen quite a few postings on guys selling them too on cl, but what was in them is my concern. If I can find some cleaned or something that had easily removable product in it then I will grab a couple more

What kind of acid?
Vinegar is an acid.

This is the guy I get barrels from. Having a removable lid is very handy. The residual food additive syrup is easily removed with hot water.

Awesome thanks!! I will give him a call tomorrow and pick up a couple. :)

im thinking for removing something else...


bleach might work

No go on the bleach. I thought that would get rid of it too but nothing.....:frown:
