Fixing Scratched Interior

Hi all

I've got a job where I constantly have to fill up jerry cans from the nearby servo and take them back for machinery and burning, both petrol and diesel.

The boss hates plastic jerry cans and only lets us use steel ones and this isn't for crossing the Canning, this is for a five minute drive in a cold area to fill up one of the mowers or something.

There's one problem with all this, all the steel jerry cans I've had in my car through time (steel jerry cans with sharp edges) I've got the odd scratch on places like my inside door handles, the front of the glove box etc. This is an 80 series.

Silly thing about it all, the boss hates plastic jerry cans sooo much saying that they're not strong enough, but the steel jerry cans he gives us are 40 years old and don't seal properly, another problem, I get the odd fuel on my carpet.

With them not sealing properly, I have to keep them stored upright, which makes a tricky situation for me, they aren't perfectly secure and they rub and scratch the sides of my doors and the front of the glove box.

There's probably 6 in total ranging from 1 cm to 2 inches, normally about 1 cm thick, maybe half a cm for some.

I've tried Armoral and it doesn't even discise it.

Before I go asking the boss to fix it and possibly losing my next promotion or pay rise, can anyone tell me any special polish or something along those lines that will fix this, or any tricks I can do?

It's an 80 series with grey interior, like I say I've already tried Armoral.


Thanks
