seriously,why ?

epoxy products are waterproof - meaning,the aluminum is completley isolated from any moisture - read that as corrosion

now,i've seen and read of some backyard guys actually believing,if they fill the pinholes in a corroded tank,with marine tex,and then,wrap that corroded tank with fiberglass matting - using a polyester resin - common sense would tell us,this is a real bad idea,yes ?

i've seen a fuel tank coated with rhino liner - that coating failed,and failed miseribly...

sometimes,it's best not to try and reinvent the wheel - it's round and it rolls...
