Rusty SA gas tank
Just dropped it from my new (to me) 79 project. Fuel filter clogged .. once tank was dropped became obvious why.
What have you SA guys done about this , any long term working techniques since new one NLA?
I’m thinking soak in evaporust a week or so, rinse, dry then quickly slosh some MMO around, drain, install.
Opinions?

POR15 makes a tank resealer kit.

I thought the Kit came with the etching compound too? Cleaning is good of course, but the POR won't adhere as well unless the Metal Ready etching solution isn't applied first! My experience anyway...
Metal Ready ava separately too, tho, so as suggested, might be cheaper to buy the 2 components separately rather than kit-form. A lot of Auto parts (NAPA in my case) stores sell these separately.
