EMP can easily purge the thin layer of a metal can.

Think about how blasting caps are stored when on a helo. It's not the can, its having the caps shunted that made them safer from "electrical elements of humidity, (or lack there of), of rotar turn, etc."

I've often thought a large footlocker lined with lead, but then I'd have difficulty in lugging the damn thing around.

What are you trying to protect?
