These are new jerry cans, bought and filled 2 years ago.  I added stabil  to them. They are green painted from Deutchoptik.  I noticed a reddish film inside on top of the green paint,  which seems fully intact.  It wiped off when I rubbed it with my fingers.  I've been using this gas in my car with 0 issues.  Does anyone know what this residue is?

Why is my fuel can red on the inside?

Don't worry! As mentioned above, the fuel cans are lined with a special anti-rust coating which is bright red in color. It will wipe off to the touch and it is water soluble but it will not come off in your fuel. It is important not to put water into your Wavian fuel can, because water will deteriorate that coating.
