Kreem disaster... what am I going to do?

<< < (2/3) > >>

SumpMagnet:
I picked up a litre of the C225 paint stripper .... and it's potent stuff!

It's like the good old days where splashes burn your skin, and paint just comes off. I am using it to remove the old chipped and flaky engine paint on my F2 and it works. Which modern Nitromors does not. I would think a 1 litre can (well...just under...it's a US quart ) should be plenty.

Just be careful....if you get it on the paint...it will strip that too.

Trigger:
The correct way to do any tank is, strip any sealer, de rust, test for any leaks and re paint. If any leaks are found, cut back to clean metal and braze to repair, re test for leaks and paint  ;)

alessandro:
Thanks to you all guys. I would try the C225 paint stripper. A liter in the tank and shake it? How do I remove it then? Water? I am really worried about the quick rust that could be formed..

What was/is the normal finish for the inside of petrol tanks? Bill W.
