Terry:

How will you know any tin you trade for is pure?

I don't see anything in the Tinrite #41 that is 
harmful. It's not like you're going to eat the flux and 
zinc is really common for food contact items.

I think I'd sell off some copper and buy the known 
product seeing as it's for food contact.
