Just finished removing a broken tank plate screw and ready to deal with the stain left behind. Any ideas? The fuel worked it's way between the paint and the clear coat. Can I squirt a little something in there that will reverse the staining?

 

Doubtful. Prolly’ have to wet sand the stains out then clear coat.

 

I would just leave that alone. Unless you’re willing to open a can of worms or your wallet to repaint the tank and the fenders .
Can you do the painting yourself?

 

If he wet sands into the metallic pearl white it will leave him with a whole new problem. It will look like a whiter blemish.

 

Prep and repaint is the only solution, I'm afraid.

 

You're not going to do anything that will negate the damage, outside of repainting. :>(

 

Try some light rubbing compound in the bad areas, Apply a hard wax on top and it be fine.

 

If that "stain" is under the clear coat ( as he stated ) it ain't "rubbing out"

 

You sure that's not rust migrating from the inside?
Either way, it's a repaint, or just live with it.
