Fuel Tank - Leaks - Sloshing
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 6:31 pm
A friend of mine built an Avid Magnum and while building sloshed
his tanks with some tank sealant sloshing product purchased from
Wicks (labeled Fuel Tank Sealant - Automotive only). The catalogue
States that it is similar to Randolph 912 and NOT FOR AIRCRAFT USE.
Anyway the sloshed compound is starting to come off the fiberglass
Tanks and can be easily scraped off with a screwdriver. Not good.
The tanks have baffles.
The question is - "Does anyone know of any product available or
method that can be used to remove the sloshed material from the
inside of a fiberglass tank?"
This comes under the category of "Teachable Moments"
