Ok, so I went to J&G Sales a coupla days ago. We got a pistol for my wife, a rifle for me, and lots and lots of ammo (close to 5K rounds). Some of this was the old corrosive (Polish IIRC) 7.62x54R.
If you've never bought a full 780 round case of this before, lemme describe the packaging. It's a wooden crate with a sealed tin box inside. The top is soldered on, with strips underneath the soft solder that have rings on the end to enable you to pull the top off.
Well, I pulled the tin box out without noticing the layer of sticky cosmo on the bottom. Put it on the carpet and commenced to trying to pry the top off. Needless to say my sister was unhappy when she went to move all the ammo I'd piled on her floor. She's letting myself and my wife stay here for free while I'm on leave, and I feel horrible for repaying her kindness by jacking up her stuff. Sooooo, anyone got any idea how to remove a cosmoline stain from light colored carpet?
