As many tanks as I have done for myself I probably could Wright a book on how to line a tank,,, one thing for sure is its not EZ to prep a tank,,, clean are rusty,,, get’n the liner (paint) to stick is no different than prep’n paint to stick to a out side surface other than you can not get inside the tank to ruff it up,,, this is one reason I do not are will not trust a radiator shop to do a spray wash and go treatment to a tank of mine,,, its time consuming,,, I don’t think they spend the time (not at $100) to prep it like I would want it.
If the fill neck extends into the tank then Nuts, nails are small metal objects are what I use,,, any thang that I feel will not get trapped under a baffle,,, then I can fish’em out with a magnet. If I see I can sake small rocks out the fill neck I use pea gravel,,, If I see rust I can get my sand blaster to thru the fill neck I hit it first then fill with rocks,nuts are what ever,,, I want to rattle them around dry and get all of it out dry,,, once you wet the inside of the tank it hard to get your abrasives out
From then on it’s a matter of following the directions
I like to buy the larger kit,,, say 25 gal. Kit for a 10 gal tank,,, I usually have a few other tanks lay’n around so get more for the money but a large cycle tank kit will do a 10 to 20 gal. Tank EZ,,, I prefer to do tanks when its cold,,, the warmer it is the less time you have to get the liner to coat the hole inside of the tank,,, do’n more than one is a scramble,,, do’n one would not B a problem.
You get what you put into it,,, I have been useing por-15 but just gave KBY a try,,, google www.por15store.com
