Re: Fuel Tanks
I know it might might be a late post but i just recently read this.
But if it helps you with the tanks theres no problem
About a year ago i polished the tanks on a 99 kenworth, and they came out pretty good. They were pitted from road debris but the black compound and a hard wheel cleaned it up very nicely. I then moved up to the brown and then the white. I got a very clear shine and had no problem. I didnt sand them at all, so there are still some very small pits in them(the only way you can see them is if you put your face right next to it and look really carefully). The part of the tank under the sleeper that i couldn't get to with the 8'' wheels i did by hand with a microfiber and the compounds. I also have done like 4 different aluminum rims from the same truck (ive posted some pictures). As for the care, I only clean and polish them once a month in the summer, but in the winter youll need to clean frequently to avoid the road salt from sticking to them. I also coat them with a thick coat of wax and have no problems
