R o g e r W h it m a n QUESTION: We have just em p tied the last gallon from our 50- gallon range-oil drum , and the drum seem s to be full of rust. Is there any way to clean this out be fore we have it refilled? ANSWER: I b ’lieve the lower inside p a rt of the drum has prob ably corroded. If you do not wish to buy a new one, you m ight con sider having the low’er p art cut out and a new piece welded on. After opening up the drum it can be cleaned out thouroughly before welding on the new piece. QUESTION: I have a pair of wrought iron candlesticks. I have just rem oved a coat of shiny black enam el from them . Now what is the correct, dull black paint or finish to use on them ? ANSWER: F irst wipe with ben zine to rem ove all traces of w hat ever kind of rem over you used to take off the old finish. Be careful of fire when using benzine. Finish the pieces with a flat black paint intended for m etal surfaces; the better stocked paint stores sell this paint.
