Tank sealer removal ?

<< < (3/3)

kevski:
For many years now I have used Oregon fuel stabilizer when I fill up, and I drain the tanks completely every year without fail and don't suffer water or rust in my tanks.
A lot of tanks get lined for no good reason when all that is needed is annual drain downs and a few ml of stabilizer on top ups.

Menno:
You can send the tank to me and I have it cleaned at this company:

I cannot guarantee it will be removed completely but 90% of the innercoatings dissapear.

Russ W.:
Whereabouts are you Menno ? How much does it cost and does it require the tank bottom cutting out ?

Why have all the hassle Buy a new tank. I know it wont be the Original but you will have got rid of the pain ... & if you ever decide to sell the bike as "original" stick the old tank back on. ;)

Menno:
I'm located in Germany.

The tank will be put in a bath filled with chemicals.
Well... different baths actually.
Since I'm a regular client at this company I can always ask if they can put it in 2 or 3 times till the inner coating is gone.

I'm going to pick up a tank this week which had a really thick innercoating.
I'm curious how much of it is left...

It will cost 50 euro.
Tank is totally clean - bear metal after cleaning.

No, nothing will be cut.
