"Galvanizing" with zinc ozide and butternut
squash
+++
Dear sir,
I have heard that you can galvanize ordinary steel by rubbing a
paste of butternut squash and zinc oxide based sun block cream onto
the surface and heating it in an oven, or here in Arizona, letting it
sit out in 100 degree full sun for 12 hours. Is this true. If
so...this would be great. Please let me know and thank you for your
assistance.

And even if it doesn't work, at least it's one less squash that
needs to be eaten. Try it and tell us what happens.

I think this deserves a "silly" rating. Everyone knows you should
use acorn squash and not butternut squash.
