safe for uds build?

[NJ2 BBQ]

found a drum for $8 bucks (with lid) to build a uds. the contents was some kind of paint for surfaces like a tennis court. no liner in it. will a good burn take care of it or should i keep looking.

Burn it and go.

I'd think a good hot burn and a good scrub oughta do it.

 

[funugy]

I'd say wash, burn, wash.

 

[Diesel Dave]

A good hot burn and scrub it out and you're good to go

 

[J-Rod]

On another thread, fellas were talking about sand blasting. I'd like to try that, then burn and season... Then cook.
