That is really painful. I'm so sorry. I hope you share a good news follow-up picture.

Sucks!
I'm going to be painting tins as well...I damaged the paint on the tank when removing/replacing the liner...found a scratch or imperfection and peeled the paint right off.
I've also had fuel peel paint, especially on a bike with a lot of lean on the kickstand. Had it happen on a hot day. Rode and then got fuel before a lunch break. Bike was in direct sunlight while I was in getting some wings and a beer (only one so it wasn't long) and fuel was running down the side when I came out. I thought I caught it early enough to avoid damage but the next morning went out to the garage and paint was peeling.

I wonder if the ethanol has something to do with this ?

Oh man! I didn’t think much of it when it happened. I had cleaned it up, thought it would be fine…sure did fool myself!

I think it must. I havent had the problems with the non-ethanol premium (when I can get it).
