    Removing floats for the winter, putting gear on - information requested

    All,
    I will be removing the floats on my Avid and putting on the bungee gear, so I can fit it into the garage for the winter. I have watched a video on the procedure for a kitfox. Chain hosted the nose while supporting the tail. 
     
    Question
    What would be the best lifting point on the nose? 
    Any other tips greatly appreciated.

    Fuselage Cleaning (Inside)

    All,
    Hope this is the right place to start this thread.
     
     
    The inside of my fuselage is filthy. The Avid Flyer has sat inside the hanger since 2003.
     
    It is sitting on floats, and so the fuselage is in a level position. There is a additional 9 gallon fuel tank in the rear (directly below the turtle deck). Sometime between 2003 and when I made the purchase this past summer, the rear fuel tank leaked and mixed with hydraulic fluid (retractable gear and hydraulic brakes). Add a few years of dust and dirt, I have a big mess.
     
    Question – What should I use to clean out the stain besides a match?
    Anyone have any luck with certain types of cleaners?
     
    Thanks,
    Robin
