Most things are NOT made out of tin. But must cans and sometimes silver ware is in tin. Ask someone who works at a local ware house or "Home Depo" whats made out of tin, they will tell or even show you.

How is tin used in everyday life?
Tin is used to coat metals to prevent corrosion (tin cans are made from tin coated steel). Tin is also an alloying agent. Important tin alloys such as soft solder, type metal, fusible metal, pewter, bronze, bell metal, babbitt metal, white metal, die casting alloy, and phosphor bronze. The Pilkington Process is used for producing glass; this involves floating molten glass on molten tin to produce a flat surface. Tin salts are sprayed onto glass to produce electrically conductive coatings. These salt treated panes can be used for panel lighting and for frost-free windshields. Some magnets are made of crystalline tin-niobium wire, which is super conductive at low temperatures. These magnets weigh just a few pounds; yet produce magnetic fields comparable to those of 100-ton electromagnets.
