The lining material was much thinner and I was concerned it would flake off - but have had no problems with it. I don’t think this method would fix small pinholes whereas I think the thicker epoxy of the POR-15 kit would. </div><div><br id="lineBreakAtBeginningOfSignature"><div dir="ltr">BobE</div><div dir="ltr"><br><blockquote type="cite">On Apr 11, 2025, at 3:31 PM, Al Fuller <alfuller194@gmail.com> wrote:<br><br></blockquote></div><blockquote type="cite"><div dir="ltr">

<div>I am in the process of reviving a car that has sat for several years. The gas tank was partially full of old gas, which when pumped out brought out a lot of rust. As such, I am thinking I will be needing to clean out and restore the inside of this tank.</div>
