If you chech the "back issues" of this message board, there was a full discussion on the cleaning and re-sealing (including some instructive advice on what NOT to do) of fiberglass tanks.

In fact, check Page 3, "Penton Fiberglass?".

Definitely follow the advise to CLEAN that tank.I glued together a freshly rebuilt motor by not knowing and removing the gumbo in the tank,I thought I had cleaned and rinsed everything out.Now I get to strip the motor down ,luckily Motor Man Doug Wilford agreed to help !

Quotequote:Hi Gary. I have used Rustol it worked good on a steel tank. But better check with the manufacturer on the tank you have.        email address //www.sudco.com ck. it out don howard [email protected]
