and as far as the copper solvent thing mentioned above is there some kind of sealer that could be run through coating the inside? Like what they do with soda and soup cans?
I'm KC and Lawrence right now. Went to Goddard HS for 2 years in 07-09 ish though so I'm quite familiar with the stop light on that corner. Apparently there's a walmart there now since I was there
