Title: petrol tank sealant
Post by: rocker21 on 04.01. 2022 12:31

got to get another tank for my A7 as it has sprung a leak, thinking of getting one from India as i have heard that they are ok and not to expensive!! and i was wondering whether to use a sealant before i put fuel in it any one had any experience with that? and if so what would be a good one to use

I've had good results from POR15. Been in one tank 4 or 5 years with no problems. Getting the tank clean seem to be the main thing for good adhesion.

This has been done to death many times elsewhere, for instance
