    What a bloody job I have used Petseal a few times about 6 years ago, one tank has flakes floating about and needs doing. The other tank an old Triumph is still as good as day one.

      My BSA A10 tank was treated with Petseal in the '80s and it's been dissolving and peeling off, blocking the tap & carb, for the past few years. It was a brilliant solution, wrecked by the bloody ethanol in petrol 😭

    After i put 2 part tank sealer in my GPZ tank i wrapped it in an old quilt and put it in our cement mixer for half hour.

      That's a great idea. Wish I'd had a cement mixer. Would've saved a lot of work. 👍

    The only question that remains is how do you dispose of that substance that’s come out of the tank, I assume it’s very toxic

      A good question. The vile stripper was put in an empty tin, sealed and put in the bin. I still have the rust remover in its original container, which says on it, 'dispose of safely' but doesn't say how! The reusable etcher is also back in its original container. Might phone Frost, who supplied them, for advice.
