Tin makes a high polish and is used to coat other metals to prevent corrosion or other chemical action. Tin salts sprayed onto glass are used to produce electrically conductive coatings.
8
Tin is used for panel lighting and for frost-free windshields. Such tin plate over steel is used in the so-called tin can for preserving food. Alloys of tin are also very important.

The abundance of tin on the Earth is about 2.2 ppm. Tin can commonly be found in Malaysia, Bolivia, Indonesia, Thailand and Nigeria. Those are mostly the places that tin is found, but tin is also produced in Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, Bolivia, Republic of Congo, Nigeria, and China. Tin is not as frequently found in Australia, England, Burma, Japan, Canada, Portugal and Spain.
