    Aluminum tank coating

    I need to coat the inside of an aluminum tank.
    Needs to resists fuel and methanol.


    The tank is less than 1gallon, so I don't need a large kit.

    any suggestions?

    thanks,

    They may have gallon bladders at a dirt track shop.

    Ya I agree, stainless is the best solution and easy to work with.

    Red kote is a lot better than the white cream stuff, I hear about a lot of problems with it. I have had red kote in my bike for 2+ years now. Fuel resistant of course, meth idk
