Vessel for manganese phosphate parkerized solution

[Groucho]

Can PVC be used for a container to hold manganese phosphate parkerIzing solution? it certainly would be easier to obtain than stainless steel or porcelon containers. Thanks

I store it in a 1 gal milk jug, no problems.

I mean to cook the solution in

Oh, ha! When you said PVC my mind went right to storage. No, I use a big stainless pot for cooking it. I can't imagine a plastic container that could handle the heat. Maybe glass or ceramic would work. Hit a few yard sales and you'll find a SS pot pretty easy.

Got my stainless steel pot at Wal-Mart for $12 holds enough for a 12" knife completely covered.

I use a stainless steel dry wall mud pan.
