My S3 fuel tank arrived thursday with a major suprise...the seller off ebay shipped it WITH ABOUT A QUART OF GAS IN IT! She is sealed and doesn't show any signs of leakage. What I am wondering is if it would be a good idea to Kreem the inside of the tank. I still have to test the fuel pump out to make sure it works. The tanks has some scratches and a major scuff on one edge that I want to repair. If I paint the tank I don't want to worry about the possible bubbling of the new paint which is why I am wondering about the Kreem. Ideas or thoughts? | ||

As far as I know Kreem is designed to seal/protect steel tanks. I used the stuff before on a steel tank It comes with a bottle of cleaner and a bottle of acid (nitric?) The acid is used etch the steel so that you get a good bond with the Kreem. Not sure how well that stuff will bond to the plastic and I sure wouldn't be dumping the acid in there. Kurt | ||

There is a plastic version of Kreem ment for offroad tanks to seal pinhole leaks. | ||

Wycked, I used Kreem in a steel tank, the problem is it eventually starts to peel off inside the tank and you have to then clean it and reseal. if the tank isn't leaking, I'd leave it alone. If your fixing an old metal tank thats rusty on the inside, then I'd use it | ||
