Re: Trailering tips for protection
Certainly put it on backwards, however you wrap it up....
Now... Since the OP was about the safety of the finish, I guess it may seem a bit off topic, but I have an overall project safety question:
Wouldn't it be prudent to drain the gas tank?
Practically speaking it's going to be a bit of a pain...
However, in a worst-case event, it would have been incredibly important...
We all know the drill: Hope for the best, prepare for the worst!
Just wanted the group opinion, in general, about the choice of safety-vs-hassel in draining and then refilling the tank for over-the-road projects like this....
FWIW, My tank has always been empty whenever I trailered/towed my A, but that was many years ago, and back in the day, I wouldn't have given it a second thought if it HAD been full...
Now, at 75, while I am well aware that age and experience will wear down your risk-takers genes, and that I should reduce as many of my "risk factors" as possible, I still would (almost certainly...) leave it in the tank...
So here's the choice:
Am I,
Prudent??? Or, Paranoid??? If I drain the tank...
Lazy???? Or, Logical???? If I leave the gas in tank....
Thanks...
