I used that stuff to repair a slow leak in my Challenger tank some years ago.
It lasted a year then started leaking again.

New tanks are not expensive if you can pursuade a lady to bring one over in her luggage.

But only if they make them for your car of course.

its not got a leak dave just need to clean it and seal it to keep the rust away from my carb,

thanks all for input,

Yeah it should do that dunc. It is a bit like an epoxy coating.

Cheap way

racket strap it to the front of a concret mixer

fill it diesel and pee shinkel and let it spin for a few hours.


Profi way

Have it dipped in Phosphoric acid might find this a local Paint door stripping company (not somthing you going to do yourself as you cant but it neat like a comapny can)

I just had mine zinc plated from in and out

Might be worth getting a pro job on it if the car's a keeper.

If you're going to use an internal sealer, make sure it's one that can handle the higher level of Ethanol in the fuel nowadays. This is a recurring problem in the classic bike scene, even a lot of tank sealers available now are giving up the ghost after a year, the sealer all breaks up in the tank.

I think you need to use one that will cope with 10% or more Ethanol content and there is talk of this limit being increased in fuel.

fetish needs a beer at the nats, top tip that one strapped it to my cement mixer poured in some gravel and degreaser and let it rip turning occasionaly, looks new inside now good enough for me, ta kid your not your regular youngster for sure,.

Yeah we do that Wil! Cement mixer and grit and ballast etc to clean old malleable iron pipe fittings, works a treat, sometimes better that the blast cabinet we got

Glad it worked out
