Mercury. Will bring it up real good

can you buy that as a cleaner .trailer been sitting awhile so will need a bit of work

should have put a winky face there. There is a very good reason you are not allowed to take mercury onto an aircraft

Speaking of Mercury.
I have 1.6kg of the stuff I would like to sell. Does anyone know who would buy it and what sort of $$$!

Op what do you need to clean off of the tipper! -is it coroded old alloy or other stuff!

gold miners love the stuff, think it forms an amalgam and they can distill off the gold.

I had 10 kg of it at Uni, was fun floating bolts etc in it, but pretty disastrous to the old health I believe

Hey MM please do tell --Why exactly can't you do that!

look up on youtube aluminum vs mercury.

Do you have a local dry ice blaster!
That should clean it up really nicely, quickly and easily. Might do it reasonable if you were able to take it around at short notice when they called. They often wind up with some left over dry ice on a Friday that may not last very well until Monday.
