How to: Fixing a rusty fuel tank with gasoline resistant epoxy resin

This video shows how to apply some gasoline resistant epoxy resin like Tankerite or PowerTank to prevent a fuel tank from rusting itself to death. This method also works against tiny leaks. 00:04 Rusty tank! 00:16 Step 1: Pour the acid into the tank and gently shaked and turn it so that it reaches every nook and cranny. Make sure to properly mask the tank to prevent the acid from eating the paint and wear appropriate gloves and a mask. Properly dispose of the acid (Results shown at 01:17) 01:26 Step 2: Fill the tank with baking soda and warm water to neutralize the acid and stop its process. Properly rinse the tank and drain it. Let it dry for a day or two if you don't have access to a heat gun. 02:30 Step 3: Pour some alcohol in the tank, shake it and drain it. Let it sit until the alcohol evaporates. This process removes most of the moisture and will improve the resin's adhesion. 02:50 Step 4: Mix the resin according to the manufacturer's specs. Some resins benefit from a little extra dilution with alcohol or other appropriate solvents. That's especially true for weirdly shaped tanks. Once the resin is ready pour it into the tank and slowly move it so that the film it forms fills the entirety of the tank. Mask anywhere you don't want the tankerite to go (threads, breathing pipes etc). 04:06 Step 5: empty the tank. It takes quite some time if the resin is dense but still... you have to do it! 04:53 Job done!
