    Paint it with tar
    Liquid out of the can is good.

    Thanks!

    Yes.

    If only I were that skilled to actually and successfully do that kind of work, though, ha! 




    I'm assuming, also, that you probably know that these are song lyrics. :)

    Yup - - the lines popped into my mind for no reason and I made a Statement.
    :)

    I do like that song a lot, though.

    Tin does not rust. A thin film of its oxide forms and protects it from further corrosion. Same with aluminium.

    I'm completely unknowledgeable (I don't even know if that is a word) on life knowledge.

    Just a fan of "Love Shack."

    Seen rusted tin,
    I have.
    Maybe that thin film of rust prevention
    had worn off?
    Maybe after being exposed to the weather
    for years and years, and years, it just gets tired...

    Yeah. In the attic of my first house I found a chest, maybe an ancient luggage chest with a wooden frame and a tin outer skin. It was pretty beat up, so we put it on the front porch, where it sat for years. It's oxide formed rapidly into to greyish-white powder and scale. It brushed right off and the original tine gloss was back. I only did this to a small part of it. Actually there are no longer any real tin roofs. They are now just painted steel or aluminum. The steel ones will rust.

     Even though I was only thinking of the song when I posted the Statement/whatever, I find all of this very interesting, thanks!

    I like the song "Love Shack' by the B-52's.

    At the 3:49 mark in the video -- "Tin Roof. Rusted." is what she says.
    :)
