Reply To: Painting gas tanks.

[Timothy McDonald]

The small Evinrude tank got it’s second treatment of Red-Kote inside today. Red-Kote is thick paint and you have to rotate the tank often while “painting” it and for an hour afterward to avoid puddling paint inside. Now to the other two. Both have pin holes. The more electrolysis, the more pin holes. Rust was thick and deep.
What I surmise….unless the tank holds gas it doesn’t matter how pretty it is…it’s just a wall hanger.
