Well if you can't get it what's the point of suggesting it? You might
have just as well said it burns better than steel. Now if you want to
corrode steel just sprinkle salt on it...

The article says mercury paste was used.

That means it's available. Just because I personally don't
know where to get it is not germane to the situation at hand.

Where's your logic lately?

Aluminum is relatively worthless for a boat hull.

All it takes to completely destroy the hull of an

Hahahha. A handful of mercury?




A stainless steel boat is impervious to just about
anything but strong acids.


How about salt water and time?
