Gas tank sealer

GPER · 02-29-2012, 09:14 AM

I could not justify 300 bucks for two new plastic military gas cans. I went with the Crown steel gas cans, but I would like to coat the insides of them so I don't have to keep the cans full of gas all of the time.

Anyone recommend a gas tank sealer that wont peel and can be bought locally??? If I can't find it locally I was thinking of the POR 15 gas tank sealer and getting it mail order.

POR15 is the only one I'm familiar with.

We've used a couple different coatings on motorcycle tanks, can't remember the brands of any of them though. I would check out some motorcycle shops, as this is a fairly common thing for them.

I think this may work, as long as my imagination doesn't get too far ahead of my skills
