Looks a bit similar to me ,but Edited by oldmike 04/14/2017 10:53 am Report this Post to the Staff

pennysaver Pillar of the Community Canada 937 Posts	Posted 04/15/2017 1:37 pm Not as long as you think. You'll notice damage in just a few days. We used to do experiments with coke and nails in public school; the nail was gone in about 2 weeks! Report this Post to the Staff
