Removeing the foam from around gas tank

[bksah2]

Hi I am also thinking about removing the foam and was wondering the same thing ,How can that old foam eat through a alm. tank ..I can see if the tank was made of poly hope the pro's can help....also great question about if wellcraft foamed the whole floor, cause i know if it gets wet it weights a ton

the foam gets wet by water intrusion from above or underneath and becomes waterlogged.foam cant hold back moisture forever before it breaks down and becomes spongelike and staying wet against your aluminum tank will corrode the aluminum.Not a pro just my 2 cents.
