    fuel tank securing, what bolts to use?

    I had the material left over from a job I ran in my shop. It’s like cutting chewing gum, but it’s not that bad. The material isn’t cheap. I cut them out on a mill.

    fuel tank securing, what bolts to use?

    I used UHMW . Made 6 “L” brackets tapered on one side . Then drilled holes at a 45 * . Then screwed them in when the screw tightens it draws down on the tank. Worked great. UHMW is great for salt water.

    Sticker removal?

    I just removed the stripes off of my 1990 seafarer. Cracked to hell. Forget the heat gun on OLD vinyl tape. The best way is the 3M eraser . Got it at autozone, 37 bucks and I was done in 2 hours. Worked great

    Just a thought . I would have used a stainless plate . It would have been much less susceptible to corrosion.
