Fuel Polishing is for all contaminants.
Gas can have water and particulate contamination.
There's also services that will come and harvest your old gas/fuel as well.
I have 100 gals of low octane gas from 2020. Was a covid precaution. Used the correct amount of stabilizer. The gas is still in good shape. I woulsn't run it in anything perf oriented.

Yea, I've done all the gas stabilizers through the years but never completely ran through the remaining 60 or so gals. its 6 yr. old gas and not surprised when the injectors came back
word was they were pretty clogged.....siphoning out 60 gals of fuel on my own is a no go....just thought about polishing option.

if it removes contaminants & water and adds octane that might be the answer.....I'm a "no" on siphoning off 60 gals. no suitable place for that.
