How do you remove an old tank liner?

Answer by  Jakecutter (1819)

You need to coat your tank with acetone or a thinner. This will remove any gasoline residue. It will also help you peel the tank liner away from the tank itself. The problem with this is you want to avoid any spark or friction that may ignite the fumes of the latent gasoline so allow the acetone to dry first.
