But I bet 2 months in a molasses bath might make it a different color at least.
===============================================

I said in my post, I was doing an EXPERIMENT.

Why don't you try molasses in your transmission then ?
I've experimented with molasses and that eats into certain metals.
Vinegar works better than molasses, but it sounds like Denny has
been Experimenting with Evaporust, and sounds like it works good.
