Thanks for the input Robert. Gasoline did cross my mind, I'm glad I didn't do it. Ill try turpentine.

Pour in about a pint of  turpentine, cap it, shake to thin the residue and pour into a suitable container for disposal. If that doesn't work try ethanol as the solvent. A can of the liquid chaffing dish fuel would be enough just be sure it's ethanol and liquid not gelled. Resist the temptation to use gasoline or trichloroethylene.

Superb looking tin, can't wait to see what you do with it mate, Chris. :)

Thanks Mud! I need to figure out how to get the residue out of it. It's like tar....I poured about a quart out of it, but I don't think I can get anymore out without a solvent of some kind.
