what would make little holes in vintage tins?
i make an art project where i take vintage jello-tins & fill them with plaster of paris then take paper mache & make cupcakes (see me on etsy store name: chinamommy). i'm having trouble with the tins getting tiny holes & then oozing grey "gunk"... any ideas what i can do to fix this problem?? thanks!
Have you tried to seal the inside of the tin with a metal paint before adding the plaster?
