    When muriatic acid is available just about anywhere, I don't know why you want to use anything else.

    Gonna try the Red Kote in a few days. Read all of this have a couple of questions.

    Does the petcock filter tube just pull out?

    When I drain the RK, do I use a wire brush/Q-tips to clear out the petcock filter hole so that the filter can be re-installed? Do I re-install the filter as soon as I leave the tank to dry?

    3 steps to the prep, right? Muriatic acid, baking soda flush, and then acetone. And the flash rust will be fine when using the RK.

    Thanks

    I pushed the filter tube into the tank with a punch and got it out the fill hole....

    Is it re-usable when you do that?
