REMOVING RUST FROM INSIDE A
CONTAINER:
I am trying to remove rust from INSIDE the gas tank on a small
engine. Looks like the gel might work but I would appreciate a reply
and recommendation. I have removed the tank. If you do have a
cleaner, then is there a neutralizer?
...In
answer to your question regarding rust removal in your tank: Cortec
suggests using Bullfrog Rust Remover – coat the inside of the tank
and leave the solution on as long as necessary. This product will
NOT attack the metal and is biodegradable. Keep the surface from
drying during treatment by covering the tank.
I suggest leaving
the tank treated overnight and then simply rinse out with soapy
water. I suggest using some Bullfrog cleaner degreaser in
the water for neutralization.

PAINTING METAL:
Can you paint metal after rust blocker has
been applied?
The rust blocker
should not be painted over.
Restorer can be applied as a primer, and then painted.
