Juwel Tanks

[coolie]

Does anyone know how to get the top frame off of a Juwel Tank so it can be turned round the other way? It looks like it has silcone in the four corners,
but want to check if it's siliconed all the way round which will be a mare?

I tried this on a 180 I used to have and it was an absolute pain in the rear. Mine was soliconed n many places and I soon gave up. I ended up turning the tank around and cutting new notches in the trim for the pipes lol.

Mine was the old style a few years back though so it might be different on the new ones.

Yes, this could be a problem...

You can probably guess why I am turning it around - scratches. Having spent several hours googling polishing out scratches,
and realising it would be impossible to polish out an entire tank of scratches, has anyone ever thought of "filling in" scratches
with transparent silicone?
