Hello,
how I can remove rust inside the tank of a lantern?
Woody Kirkman said that to prevent rust and stop there, the tank must be sealed with a sealant.
Is there another method?
Rust inside the tank of this flashlight is smooth.
I hope your suggestions.
Greetings.
Jose.

Hi Jose,
suggest to fill with sharp edged gravel and shake well,- or fit to a consturction similar to the one you see in this thread
Thermos / Kamplite Ansaugmimik?
Rinse and clean before usage.

Hi
White vinegar is very good for removing rust....after a 4/5 hour soak empty tank by pouring vinegar through a fine filter so you can reuse...repeat until happy!

Einfachste Methode, einen Tank von innen zu entrosten: Splitt oder kleine Schrauben oder Muttern einfüllen, etwas Petroleum dazu, Tank verschließen und ganz lange und intensiv schütteln.
Anschließend mit Waschbenzin ausspülen. Bei Bedarf kann der Tank von innen dann mit geeigneter Farbe versiegelt werden.Remove rust in the tank
Easiest way to remove rust from inside a tank: gravel or small screws or nuts pour a little kerosene to tank seal and shake very long and hard. Then rinse with mineral spirits. If necessary, the tank can then be sealed from the inside with a suitable color.
