water and diesel tanks
I am building diesel and watertanks from 15 mm ply. I coat the inside
with 6 layers of epoxy. The corners are reinforced with 350 gram glass. I would like to leave the epoxy on the inside of the tanks uncoated. I would like to know if anybody has experience with the behaviour of this uncoated epoxy in combination with diesel? And is there any information if the epoxy in the watertanks can be left uncoated? If a coating needs to be applied, what sort of coating? |
