I've done at least 4 tanks this way. Works great!
I've also used Castrol Superclean (the purple stuff) full strength to
remove varnish. I let it soak in the tank a few days, sloshing it
whenever I walked by. I used a garden hose to rinse the tank after
the soaking. The tank got amazingly clean. This was on a tank
that sat with 3 gallons of gas for about 15 years.
The last tank I cleaned I put in my electrolytic tank........ It
came out like new ;)
I never coat the inside with anything. Once they are clean inside -
they stay clean inside if you fill them with gas and drive the car ;)
