## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do you suppose this could be used on the inside of a motorcycle gas tank? there's quite a bit of rust and it can come loose and clog the gas filter**
A: No.  The gas will dissolve the CRC and you would have a worse problem.  There is an Epoxy compound designed for coating gas tanks.  I have talked to friends that have used it and it works very well.

**Q: I've bought a number of rust converters and they all seem to set up after a year or so.  How's long term storage?**
A: I bought this around august I think. So it hasn't been a year but it looks to be in good shape yet. Was top notch job it did and was very impressed with it.

**Q: After applying rust converter, should you apply rust inhibitor (crc 06026)?**
A: After your metal has turned black and dried I WOULD RECCOMEND A COUPLE COATS OF ANTI RUST PAINT Works well for me!
If you let your metal sit without a coat of paint it will rust again down the road more so if exposed to weather!
Your  rust convertor is your primer but do add a finish coat of paint... Good Luck!

**Q: am restoring gas pump want to fill in pit holes can i put either body fill or fiber glass on over rust converter or how to do it**
A: I have used body filler over crc rust converter on the sides of my truck's flatbed. First, I sanded what was left of the old paint and most of the excess rust off. Then, I applied the rust converter. After it had dried for a couple of days, I sanded again lightly and applied body filler to the dents. Then, I primed and painted. It has been 6 months of hard use since I refinished the bed, and the filler and paint are sticking just fine. No sign of rust, either.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by M***6 on 15 September 2014*

Seemingly provides good coverage and a good seal but is not completely effective at converting the rust. I prepped my truck frame per the instructions and applied per the instructions where it worked it looks great where it didn't completely work you can still see an orange rusty frame. I would say the it worked on about 70% of everything I coated. If I remember to come back I will update with how well this holds up over the winter with salty roads.
