|
|
I installed a gas tank liner 5 years ago when restoring my 35 JD B using muracic acid acetone and white Kreem kit from eastwood. Was going to take tractor to parade Friday night but liner was separated in tank and was a mess. Managed to peel some out but not all. What have some of you used in past to remove entire liner? Not going to use one in future. Someone told me to try MEK. Thx. |

If you had installed Red-Kote, then you could have used MEK to dissolve it for sure, but as for Kreme, you can only try. If anything will dissolve it, MEK has the best chance. |

Thanks F-I-T and 9630T. I think I'll try MEK and if it doesn't work then send it off to tank renu. |

Take it to a good radiator repair shop and have them clean it in the acid tank they clean radiators in. I had this done before liner was put in and have had no problems,on 4 tanks so far. |

Had the same luck with Kreme on my Allis B tank. Finally took it to a radiator shop. Don't know what they did but the removed the Kreme and rcoated with RedKote. No more problems. I won't use Kreme or anything not put on by a pro again. I have had 6 or 7 tanks done with RedKote without a problem. |
