How does the inside of my gas tank look to you guys? Do I need to clean and seal it or leave it as is? Thanks, Doug

A 3rd vote for POR Metal Ready. Easy to apply and doesn't take much of the product to complete the job. Pour it in the tank and splash it around to coat all surfaces. Wait 15 minutes then rinse well with warm water.
Last year I also used it on a bumper after I stripped it completely of paint. It's been sitting bare metal for months in the open air and not a trace of rust. |
