Whist speaking to the powder coaters i ask if they had the facilties to acid dip petrol tanks which unfortunatly they didnt but sugested that they could blast and zinc coat the tank for me. Anyone had this done? I have visions of forever trying to clean out ressidue of the blast from inside the tank?????

Yeah done a few, you have to blank it all up with speed tape (aluminium tape) then wash it out with some fuel afterwards and bobs yer uncle.

Blow it all inside with compressed air after the blasting process and give it a good slosh out.

Have heard of one ending up with a blocked fuel filter and thus breaking down.
