[Tigers] Gas tank resealer

[Ron Fraser]

                This is not a difficult process to do it yourself.    Eastwood and others have tank sealer kits.  I believe most or all of those kits are now alcohol resistant but you need to check.

If you don’t want to use an acid type rust remover use an EvapoRust type product, they work very well to remove just the rust.  I have also used a pressure washer to remove gunk from the inside of a tank once but I’m not sure that will work well with these tanks.

 

I used some sharp stones to shake around my tanks to remove the loose coating.   I don’t remember using any rust remover product and I used Bill Hirsch tank sealer.

Curt, I used a radiator shop. They cleaned the tanks and sealed them. With what I do not know...

 

You might talk to a motorcycle shop also...

Greetings from Chicago home of the Cubs.

 

Would appreciate any comments, references, for cleaning and reseal of Tiger or Alpine gas tanks. Also the name of any shop who performs this from start to finish. Midwest area would be best as freight now days can kill a lot of projects or turn a bargain into a expensive venture.


Thanks in advance for your response.
