SandBurro Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 :?: just poor in let site a few min and poor out good to go ? You can try washing out with that acid, media blast it with nut shell. would POR15 work ? Quote
dunefreak Posted June 18, 2009 Posted June 18, 2009 No, fill the tank with it and let it sit overnight. Depending on how bad the tank is you might need to leave it for another day or even 2. Mine was pretty rusty and I left the acid in it for almost 3 days. You might wanna set it on different sides each day or swirl it around some. Then just drain it out and rinse the tank clean with fresh water. Quote
sndruner213 Posted June 18, 2009 Author Posted June 18, 2009 thanks for the help guys ill see what i can get done Quote
Raptor0206 Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 dont use water to rinse it, use gas (i know its not cheep) but if you use water it will flash rust Quote
vegas style Posted June 23, 2009 Posted June 23, 2009 i used older race gas to rinse. if you are on the west side i have a gallon of acid i didnt use from my tank. let me know if you want it. Quote
mineurbiz Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 I used the acid also, but you might want to look at the kreem products, they have one to clean also, but more importantly after you clean it, they have a liner product to protect and seal it after it is clean. Quote
xXQuickSandXx Posted June 24, 2009 Posted June 24, 2009 Moisture in the tank is a no no, no water! You'll never have rust again after using this product>> http://www.bluelightning.zoovy.com/product/FTLPT Quote
sndruner213 Posted June 25, 2009 Author Posted June 25, 2009 can i get that bluelightning anywhere in town ? Quote
Raptor0206 Posted June 25, 2009 Posted June 25, 2009 No point in putting that in ur tank just do the acid it will look brand new, a lot of that tank stuff breaks down over time and causes more problems Quote

There is a point. Will never have to worry bout that metal tank rusting again. Quote
