    Default In-Wing Kreem Slosh removal method?

    I surprisingly can't find any threads detailing exactly the process
    used for removing old Kreem from 2000 vintage tanks that are already
    in the wing.

    The general theory is discussed here and there in various threads, but
    no clear procedure is outlined - specifically the threads don't discuss
    how MUCH of the Kreem actually comes OUT in the process - all of it in
    liquid form (like Kreem says)? or just that which is no longer bonded
    perfectly? or just part of it ? Some people say use Acetone (including
    Kreem themselves) some say use MEK...

    Lastly, what do you guys do after rinsing/removing the Kreem on
    the 'old' tanks? Re-slosh with the Caswell epoxy? Or maybe the Hirsch
    product? Or is the 'rinse' removal enough if I don't really plan to run
    E10 ( I'm a non-eth kinda guy!)?

    Thanks!
