But what’s a molasses slurry?

Karen – some old farmers around the ridges kept telling me to put the rust metal parts in a slurrey of molasses – so after some cake and a cuppa – I managed to get out of them : 100ml molasses to 2 litres of water makes an effective slurry for cleaning metal up – and would you believe it works a treat! My hands smell constantly of molasses – but who cares!!!! OOps – just realized you might not know my measurements – a cup of molasses to 2.5 pints of water :) and you leave really rusty stuff in there for 4-5 days – pull it out, hit with a wire brush and Bob’s your uncle!!! :)

Thanks Dave – I have always been kinda good at seeing a new way of using old stuff – now I am having a go at actually creating them :)
