Alrighty so someone already asked this question. They got an answer saying its probably made out of a copper alloy and that it oxidized. However my Flask says its made out of Stainless Steel on the Bottom. Can I just try that Hot water and Rice thing and clean it a few Times. Is it dangerous to continue to use it?
Cheap flasks come from third world countries. Don't believe everything you read on a label. Applying a little sticker is a lot easier than making something safely, when you are manufacturing outside the united states.
The sides of your flask are stainless, the bottom may or may not be. The top with the threaded screw would be difficult and expensive to mass produce in an alley in india or a sweat shop in china. The threaded mouth is almost certainly brass or copper with a very shoddy electroplate finish which will start to flake and peel off exposing the brass which will tarnish to a green oxide. Copper is OK, you just need to constantly scrub away the poisonous green stuff. Some brass has lead in it, some does not. You can oxidize brass by soaking it in a peroxide solution. The oxidation becomes a barrier to the lead.
Scrub it with a green brillo dampened with a little lemon juice and salt then rinse with water. Does it look like brass or copper where the plating is gone?
The real worry for you is to wonder if the pakistani metal-smith sitting in the dirt street cared enough for you to use, could afford, or even knew what a lead-free solder was when he fashioned your flask that you bought from walmart or seven-eleven...
I suggest, re-gifting it to someone you don't like and keep your eye open for a proper antique flask, or a well made modern one.
Good luck.
