I have personally sprayed aluminum tanks since 1999 and have yet to see a failure on a well prepped tank. Not all line-x is a pure polyurea so you would have to find a dealer near you that does a lot of light industrial work. There are over 100 different types of line-x products finding an applicator that applies the proper coating for the application is what you need. Line-x xs-350 is the product to look for. If you have any questions let me know. Pricing for a 100 gallon tank $275-$350 depending on dealer and what material they have in their lines. Changing over each way is about $75 of product loss. So if your interested you might have to wait a week or two. Good luck

"pricing for a 100gallon tank $275-$350 depending on the dealer"




using interprotect 2000e


interprotect 2000e barrier coat - retails for approx $90/gallon

gonna need approx 2 qts - 1 grey/one white

etch prime -approx $20 retail

this is what's required,materials wise,for that job...
