Gaz Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I used cheapish hammerfinish from supercheap in my old escort and it came up well. Its a pretty durable paint for the boot hence why I used it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esprit Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 For my money I'd be doing it in POR15. That stuff is harder than a coffin nail and will look as good in 20 years as it does the day you apply it. They also do an inside-tank treatment that will line the tank with an epoxy to stop it rusting from the inside out. Their tank treatment will also fill any pinholes etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tortron Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 yea POR for the win. their tank kits are fairly good wack a length of chain in there with the cleaning solution and shake the shit out of it - will take off anything you dont want Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
