Only needs a dab on the end of a cloth not a full tot.

The e 5 or e10 added nowadays to fuel is nothing more than cheap alcohol.
That doesn't affect paint much.

However; everyone always needs to be very careful with their original paint. Ever.

Does that mean that if I paint my S90 tank with cellulose paint Menno then  I don't need to clear-coat with 2-pack petrol resistant lacquer? RS BikePaints still sell the red  paint for that model in cellulose.

Menno:
I would say; test it on a piece of metal first.
Paint it and see the next day how easy it is to wipe it off with a cloth with a bit of thinner on it.
If your cloth turns red I would suggest a clear 2k to seal the tank.
