I clean tanks with a 50/50 mix of muratic acid, and water. It only takes a few minutes. Be sure to rinse the tank out with clean water. Also be sure not to inhale any of the fumes!!!!!! As for lining the tank. I DO NOT recommend it. Sometimes it works, but when it fails, IT FAILS! Then it causes more problems. If the tank is that bad that it needs lined to hold gas; fix it by welding, or use JB Weld. If that will not fix it, throw the tank away, and get another one.
