I've done a few by wrapping the tank in several layers of newspaper and being extremely careful with Petseal remover. Leave it over night and then hose it out the next day. I once used bubble wrap on one of my Velo tanks :scream: Which left an imprint of the bubbles, so had to respray it afterwards. Ron
I’ve had a couple of bikes that were stored for years with fuel in the tanks. Nasty stuff. I cleaned them best I could and put some rust dissolver, goose shot, and drywall screws in the tank, wrapped it real well in an old sleeping bag. When the wife was away, put it in the dryer on no heat and tumbled it. No damage and it knocked all the loose stuff loose. Been running the bikes for years now with no issues.
