Hi,<br />Is there any solvent for boat-foam (used in boats as flotation aid, to fasten gas tanks etc).<br /><br />Acetone or thinner do nothing to this foam.<br />Anything else to try?<br /><br />It is cured foam I want to dissolve/melt by the way.

Don't know of any chemicals but if you have open access and don't mind a little water, a power washer works like magic. Cuts thru the stuff like a hot knife. Careful of whatever is under the foam. With a little caution you can remove the foam without affecting anything around it.
Laddies,<br /><br />Gas You say. Hm... my gas tank is placed in foam. Should not be a good combination if You get a gas leak...<br />I will try gas and see what happen.<br /><br />Realgun,<br />The foam is around the gas tank and I want to remove the tank to be able to build a new mounting for the tank so it can be removed any time I want and to be able to inspect the tank every time before I go out to sea.<br />The tank came loose last summer and I do not want that to happen again.<br />I have a plan how to fasted it much better then the foam thing (that the boat factory used to save money).
<br /><br />Oh and there is a ball of string stuck in it too.
