A method of making container stock comprises cold-rolling low-carbon steel strip to a thickness greater than that desired in the finished product, applying a lacquer coating to at least one side of the strip, thermally curing the lacquer coating, and cold rolling the lacquer-coated strip to final gauge, e.g. a reduction of about 50% in the strip thickness. The coating may be applied in a thickness to result in a coating weight of from 4-11 mg. per square inch. The strip may be reduced by the first cold-rolling to a thickness of about 0,010 inch and by the second cold-rolling to a thickness of about 0,005 inch. The lacquer may be a cross-linked vinyl lacquer or an oleo-resinous lacquer. |
