🤣🤣 I'm not sure I can blame auto correct for that one!

Im putting carb issues to one side for now while the weather is crap to get my grotty tank prepped ready for my attempt at a DIY respray.  This is where I'm going to ask you wise folk for your opinion on tank liners, my rather battle scarred tank has what appears to be a light brown liner which currently looks to be OK but as I'm doing a respray should I consider removing it? 

I'm doing a full bare metal strip which has uncovered quite a bit of filler, I knew I would having run a magnet over it, the tank badge clips have been filled in so I think I might have to do the same for two reasons.  Firstly my badges were glued on with the pins cut off, secondly I the denting is mostly around the badge area so I think getting the clips to accept the badge pins will be nigh on impossible.  Any thoughts or opinions appreciated.

DomP:
I think it's been used for target practice!

After having a liner fail for the first time in 10 + years, all I can advise is steer clear of the bloody things. Up until this point I was quite a fan but I wouldn’t go near it at all if I were you. Trying to get rid of ‘said’ failed liner took me over a month to be sure it was all out. The cleaning stuff is over a tenner a litre and I used nearly 10 litres and even then it’s not that great at shifting it. Steer clear Dom it’s a cock up in tin waiting to happen.
