GUTS,
You've commented on my S3 rebuild, so you may remember that it sat for about 40+ years...and got pretty rusty. Do you add anything like shot BB's or sheet metal screws...or just let the Evapo-rust do it's thing?
Great topic, by the way!

It's por 15 or kbs tank liner. Mek or possibly acetone. Be very careful with both.

There is a liner that radiator shops use that seems to be highly recommended, that they call red liner. Maybe........ :problem:
