There are a few things that distinguish Chrome-plated Cans

Chrome Plated Cans - Why Choose Chrome Plated Canes? There are a few things that distinguish Chrome-plated Cans from regular, paperboard, and stretch two-piece cans. These are easily identified by a simple visual inspection: The tops of the two-piece can be easily distinguished from the bottoms by seeing which part of the can maintains the shiny metal finish, which part is glossy or matte, and which area has a raised textured surface on the interior of the can. This visual inspection will help you identify whether or not the can is indeed made from Chrome-plated cans. Some other things to look for when inspecting these can-tops include:

Chrome-plated two-piece cans have a raised surface that is shiny in the middle, but matte on the edges and backs. If the edge of the can has a smooth finish, it's probably not made from Chrome-plated cans. However, the can may look very good if all of the sides of the can are made from Chrome-plated material, including the sides that are glossy.

Cans are heavier than two-piece cans. This means that even if two-piece cans have been treated to resist moisture, they could still have the same visual appeal as Chrome-plated cans. This doesn't mean, however, that you cannot find good quality two-piece cans that are Chrome-plated. You just have to look harder for them.

Chrome-plated cans have an interlocking design, unlike regular can material. This means that can-seal seal, the part you open to put food into the can, won't come apart while canning your food. However, some companies do recommend leaving the seal open while canning to help keep the can apart. A well-made two-piece can that is well sealed will not come apart at all. So make sure that your Chrome-plated cans have a professional sealer applied to them.

Some of the more expensive Chrome-plated cans can hold as much as five gallons of food. Some of the cheaper models only hold two cups. It's worth taking the extra time to do proper research before picking out the can for your needs, as you'll probably get what you pay for with these cans. You can, however, find many different styles and prices, so shop around.

If you're happy with the look of the Can, but you'd like a little more insulation, be careful about the can. Make sure that the insulation is placed between the rim and the lid of the can. Be sure that it's a good fit too, as some can heat up in hot kitchens and cause a can to warp or weaken. Good luck with your new cans!
