Title: Coke Airline cooler Post by: COREY on April 16, 2011, 07:48:58 pm Does anyone have any recommendations on removing the inner liner of a coke airline cooler? I have tried several different ways, but can't get it to budge. Any thoughts are welcomed.

Below is a photo of my airline cooler I restored. The insides were in great condition 'tho. Terry Title: Re: Coke Airline cooler Post by: johnieG on May 03, 2011, 07:00:19 pm It has a stainless steel liner, it can't rust, unless of course you put an acid inside it.

Title: Re: Coke Airline cooler Post by: thouchins on May 04, 2011, 11:12:53 am Yes, I use JB Weld anytime I have metal holes to fill. If it's a large area of damage, you can first fill it with Bondo. Then apply a small layer of JB Weld over it to harden it up more.

Title: Re: Coke Airline cooler Post by: thouchins on May 04, 2011, 12:37:38 pm The photo below shows my airline cooler when I first got it. There's rusted holes along the bottom. The JB Weld filled them in nicely. If you want to know about the embossed lettering, let me know.
