Preparing the outside of the tank

Lashings of red oxide primer!

The remaining underseal was on solid and it was all shiny under what came off, so decided to leave it put.

There was a small rust hole, which I soldered. Can just see the small lump slightly in from the bottom left hand corner as viewed.

  1. The fuel tank would be better finished with a protective coat of POR epoxy. This would also seal any tiny imperfections.

    1. Good shout. Doing that on the inside. "Tank Kleen" first and then "Slosh", which I believe has the same (or at least similar) effect. That's the next job. rust.co.uk
