MilitantMedic:I've seen 3 tanks blow their discs while being left in the sun. Still trying to figure out how they would pop off.
laughintom:Hey I found some surface rust under my tank boot and decided to fix it. I used a steel brush on a drill to clean the paint and rust off the bottom of the tank. Is there an easier way to do this? Anything I should be watching out for? I am going to hit the tanks with a rust inhibitor once they are completely stripped and then repaint them. Any suggestions on best inhibitor or paint for this application?
Thanks,
Tom
DTB1981:I just got done redoing an alum 80. I used the gel zip strip to remove the old paint and a green scrub pad to remove any corrosion then used gray primer and wet sanded tell it was smooth. I then used white primer and painted it yellow. What do you think?
SteFord:Nice job! How quick can you turn them around? What's your address?
