    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Tank liner

Hey guys, I got bad rust in my tank, what is the best way to clean and reline it?
 
Kreem

Kreem

I had mine done at an independent bike shop for $80. I don't know what the stuff is but it's dark red and has worked well for 3 years. I've heard that Por15 is very good but I recall seeing some real horror stories regarding Kreem..... :cry:
 
I just finished Kreeming my tank and didn't have any problems. The only bad thing about the stuff is that it has MEK in it and that stuff will eat through anything.
 
Yes

Yes

Yeah, I imagine following the directions is really important. It seems like several people said that Kreem would "peel off". Maybe they didn't prepare the tank properly before they applied it. :cry:
 
Sudco sells a product called Rustol that is not a liner at all. It removes the rust and treats the tank. Best of all it is reusable.
 
The trick to the Kreem kits or any tank liner is not to rush. Make sure the tank is perfectly clean and that you dry it out with the MEK. Cover all the surfaces with the last bottle, making sure to spin the tank around and cover the top inside the tank, etc.
Let it dry for an extended period of time. At least a few days. From my experience, the longer you let the liner set up in the tank, the better it holds up over time.
