sometimes you gotta seal them. I had tons of
flaky rust crap in donor tank #2. I used some
sealer that I got fromhttp://www.por-15.com/.
it is unlike the kreem stuff (latex?) that can
chunk up and flake off if not applied correct.
oh, the por-15 stuff itself supposedly will not
harm paint, but the prewash/etchings stuff is
quite strong.

I have never used the sealer in any of my tanks. The best thing you can do is clean it real good and then pour some marvel mystery oil in and swish it around. Drain this out and fill her up and go. This is a trick I learned from Dad and it has worked well. If those liners are not done correctly they WILL peel and clog every hole in your carbs and petcocks. Paul Ray Hale wrote:
