I can't believe the dryer method won't ding up the tank, despite padding it. How many blankets are needed?

I think he meant hair dryer? That's what I used. I ordered POR-15 motorcycle tank seal kit from the website and it worked perfect. It also comes with very good instructions and costs near the same I think. Kreem dissolves in acetone/MEK, the por-15 didn't (stayed on my hands forever) and it has a cool silver finish as opposed to the kreem white. The kit comes with tank cleaner and acid etch/prep included.

No, I guess he did mean clothes dryer, hmm. I'd be too afraid.
