Zinc Watering can 5 L
This Zinc Watering can 5 L is produced to last for many years. It is made in thicker iron plates than normal, stronger welds and a rough finish. When the watering cans are finished, they are hot galvanized. They are immersed in a zinc alloy that is 460 degrees hot. The zinc adheres to the iron as a thick syrup. When the jug comes up again, it hangs and drips for 20 minutes. This is the absolute best way to prevent the iron from rusting.
The jugs that do not get paint, the ones keeping the zinc color, start a slow oxidation process. That is, the zinc slowly matures in color. If you want this process to go faster, you can apply a weak acid, for example a sour milk product. It will accelerate the oxidation which gives the matte surface. The hot dip galvanizing loses its full correction security after about 50 years.
