Rust converters

Sesman:
Bilt and Hamber Deox- C for rust removal and Gas-Mac for tank preservation. Works for me.

Laverda Dave:
I've used Deox-c a few times and it's great. I fill the tank to the brim with boiled water from a kettle and wrap it up in a NASA blanket (the foil backed but thin insulated blanket used for home insulation and available from Wicks). The tank will still be hot the next day. I normally leave the Deox-c for 2-3 days before draining it out. It's never failed to work. I then dry the tank inside with a hot air gun until it is bone dry and including the seams. I then swill a bit of diesel around to coat it.
Deox-C costs about £20 and can be purchased direct from Bilt Hamber via their website, other places can charge a lot more.

Mike_Berkshire:
I recently tried Ferro-bet - it wasn’t very good

Sesman:
I flush with deionised water post Deox C treatment. Not sure it’s absolutely essential, but does prevent flash rusting until I get the diesel coat in.

DomP:
Does the diesel not just get washed off once you fill up with petrol
