after midnight tank cleaning...


yes, it's shinya time. tonight, he wants to remove all the inside rust from his CB450 gas tank.

シンヤ・タイムに突入。本日はCB450のガスタンクのサビ落とし。


 put some bolts and nuts, too...

サビ落とし液にボルトやナットも入れて・・・

and shake it once every hour for a while to spread the rust remover overall the tank. it was fun at the beginning but then shinya lost his interest (in shaking it) and forgot to rotate the tank afterward.

タンクを振る。しばらくは1時間毎にタンクを振ったり回転させて、中の液体を内部全体に行き渡らせる。が、振るのが楽しかったのは最初だけ。その後完璧に忘れてタンクを放置する木村氏。

a little later, shinya took everything out from the tank.

しばらくしてタンクのことを思い出し、とりあえず液体を出してみる。
 
 yikes!

トムヤムクン出来ました。
 
 like a child...

出てきた錆をいじくり回す姿は、到底オトナには見えない。

because he forgot to rotate the tank, the top side still had a lot of rust so he put the rust remover back in...

もちろん振るのを忘れていたので、液が届いていないタンク上部にはまだサビがたっぷり。なのでトムヤムクンを再びタンクに戻す。

this time, shinya promised himself to rotate the tank once a while :D

今回は遠くを見ながら少し念入りにタンクを振る木村氏。

Too much aluminum dust!
You guys need to make a rotisserie,
out of an old hub, belt and electric motor.
Than you'll really go crazy with the noise!
