Removing Goo From Gas Tank
Hi Guys
Well I'm having another dose of restoration energy, and have repainted and detailed the front luggage compartment.
I want to restore the rusty (inside and out) tank back to the stippled grey finish. My question... How the fuch do I remove the original rubberised coating?!! I've tried paint stripper, brake cleaner and a sharp chisel. I have a grinder and wire wheel, heat gun and a torch... but question the danger involved with this. Is filling the tank with water a safe option before applying heat or creating sparks?
What have you guys done?
