    There are several ways to skin a cat…the method I use involves old school technology, I have run into a tank sealed only with a sealant without gasket. Strong bond and it did not leak, but, tank was damaged
    so it had to be split to repair. What ever it was it did a GREAT job.
    I have also had a tank with all seams welded…that one would never
    leak. Some attempted remedies for a seam leak failed to solve the
    problem or introduced new problems.
