Frank,
I could care less what they said to you over the phone.. I've gotten my non- 02 cleaned, no stickers tanks filled there MANY times..
Frank, read my post below wherein I asked you if I went through all the hoops and motions that you have suggested; cleaned the tank, put the silly stickers on them etc and then spend the next 10 months getting that tank filled from the dirtiest compressor known to mankind, does the initial cleaning and the silly stickers make that tank any safer????
It happens all the time and no amount of cleaning or no amount of silly stickers is going change that.. If the average guys filling tanks at a shop really believes that just because the tank has an 02 clean sticker and/or a Nitrox banner on it that it means that tank hasn't been exposed to hydrocarbons than he is living in fantasyland...
