This is a labor intensive product that has conflicting instructions, the containers don’t match the instruction sheet included with them. It would have been helpful to have known how the final stage coating behaves before starting. I expected the small amount of liquid to be hard pressed to cover the entire surface and get around the baffle, so l rotated the tank a lot trying to get even coverage. After waiting the required time I was suprised at how much material drained out of the tank and how much it changed and expanded, probably could have saved myself a lot of work if I had known how the coating worked. Tank cleaned up better than expected and coating seems to have bonded well. This tank should be good for another 95 years!

The tank rehab kit is from POR15.
I read the instructions about 4 times and watched some YouTube videos. I followed the instructions meticulously. If I made a mistake maybe I did not slosh the final coating around long enough. I did roll it around thoroughly for a 1/2 hour but some areas look to have a thinner coating than others. Granted it is hard to see in there. The instructions did not specify a time for the final coat. Also it would be nice to know when it’s going to start to thicken. I thought I had 30 min to an hour but in reality it was about 2 1/2 hours before the final coating started to thicken. Had I known that I would have kept rolling it around in there for a full hour or so before draining off the excess.
However, I am happy with the product and I’m sure it will work out ok.
Also I have a jerry can to do and I should have done both at the same time. I could easily have poured the chemicals from one tank to the next and done both with the one kit, but unfortunately that did not occur to me at the time. There was a lot of the coating left (2/3) over when I poured out the excess.

When you have an antique auto that either doesn’t have a replacement tank or it is so expensive, this is the perfect fix for rust and pinholes! This review is over a year old and the tank has no leaks!

Take your time and follow the instructions. Make sure you mix the sealer well before use. Very satisfied with the results on a antique tractor tank.

I used a few additional cleaning steps with white vinegar and metal hardware- small chains to help remove all of the rust and scale on the inside of the tank first. Then I followed the instructions in this kit. I have shared before and after pictures. There are paint runs, but who cares? The tank is coated and holding up well.

I had an old excavator metal tank that the guy left sitting out in the rain. The whole inside was so rusty. It takes quite a bit of time to follow the directions, but if you do, it comes out wonderfully I’ve now been using that tank for I think a couple years and it looks like brand new still.

I’m resurrecting an antique car, and the 77 year old gas tank had lots of rust in it. I got most of the rust out with vinegar, but this kit was great for removing the rest of it and coating it. Without a doubt, follow the directions carefully, and wear gloves. The cleaner got more rust out, and the metal prep left a nice gray coating on the tank. Rinsing out the metal prep wasn’t hard, but when it comes to drying the tank, it will take much longer than you think. I left a heat gun pointing in through the sender opening and the filler neck, but even after changing positions several times, it took over an hour to dry. Be patient! The final coating was easy to apply, but there was a baffle in the tank that took some additional maneuvering of the tank to get the coating on it. I had used the POR15 coating by itself on a motorcycle tank that was also rusty, and it works quite well. I will say even after 96 hours (4 days), there’s still a strong smell of the coating, so maybe giving some extra time to make sure it’s really dry is worthwhile. Maybe a week or more.
