    Try using a good hair dryer on the rolls to warm them slowly and
    harmlessly, whilst wiping the rolls with tissue or kitchen paper.  A
    little invisible wax residue will inhibit rusting. and do no harm 

    I sympathise. I have a son, now 56 but 12 at the time who got into my
    workshop and made himself a 'Viking axe' using my carefully hoarded
    piece of  20 gauge sterling sheet. I discovered this because he left
    it lying on the lawn, and I nearly mowed it. There's much, much more
    but we won't go into that now. PADLOCK YOUR WORKSHOP DOOR!!! 

Cheers for now,
