But I agree to a point, if you don't need it don't do it. With mine I used the same cleaner that comes with the liner kits to clean the insides of my tank. It came up spotless so I didn't line it. Bit of a problem if your tank leaks though, in this case a new tank would be my choice as they are available and the 400F paintwork is quite simple and cheap.

Who is Menno?
If Menno got his act together and sent me an image file, he’d be in the forum sponsors section with Piki and Marcel. SteveSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Hello Emiel, I have painted this tank end 2014. Things have changed quite a bit since then.And of course sometimes things can go wrong or repairs can go wrong.But as everyone here knows as well I will solve any problems for free.So please send me your tank and sidepanels as we agreed in october 2016 you would do.On the other hand; I guess anyone would love to have his set painted for 365 euro including everything nowadays.Yes Steve, you are right. I have to get my act together - sorry.Do you have a set price to paint and re sticker tank and side panels for a 400/4 ? My tank has 4/5 vey small rust holes underneath would I need to get them soldered or can you do that?
