Hammerite and waxoyl! where looks don't matter as much(fuel tank n chassis) paint hammerite on thick and waxoyl over the top!
- hammerite looks the best option for my fule tank- once I get several pinholes plugged!
I wouldn't dream of welding one with any fuel in (!) but thanks for the thought.
I did weld it up, however MIG has turned out to be be too porous and the contents weep out. Best laid plans and all that ....Plan B was to use a metal-filled epoxy resin, and so far this seems to be water-tight and flexible enough too. The product is recommended for crank-cases so ought to be able to take heat and a certain amount of expansion.I'll let you know how I get on
There is a chemical way wiht electrolosys that I know but cant remember the formula. Its v.good (according to people who I trust) and gets in all the nooks and crannys. Ill try to dig it out.The worst thing is that even aluminimum rusts (well bi-metalic corrosion anyway)
