I once put Daisy "Golden BB's" into 5 Tamiya acrylic jars, to help mix them up when shaking them. I had gotten so used to doing this with Testor's I didn't find out until too late that the BB's were just coated with brass and were nothing but iron underneath. Iron and water based paints created a nice rusted product that took me forver to figure out why the Tamiya paints were clogging up the airbrush...The BB's had rusted!
ended up being a lesson I'll never forget!..LOL
