Is it a large area that is rusted?


Yes. They are big tanks and the entire tops are badly rusted. They
are almost 24 years old at this point and there is some risk of
internal rust also.

You can clean off and Ospho the rust and cloth and epoxy over the areas.
Saves quite a bit if money.


It's an interesting thought but I'm not sure if I'd trust it offshore
in a seaway. Do you know anyone who has done it successfully? If so,
how did it hold up? One of the problems is that the top of the tanks
are difficult to get to.
