Subject:      Removing the undercoating off a gas tank
Comments: To: vanagon@vanagon.com
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii

I'm replacing my gas tank which rusted out on the top
with another tank.  This one is in real good shape but
there is a little rust around the outer seams in a few
places and some by the sender.


As I started sanding around the sender, I found more
and more rust.  The rubbery undercoating is a bear to
sand off, so I wondered whether there is an easier way
to remove this stuff.


I'd just as soon do this job only once and really want
to get all the rust off then reprimer and paint the
tank.  I may also coat the inside of the tank.  Any
suggestions?
