Well, that would be difficult to coat *every *part of the tank. You would have to seal all tiny cracks and grooves. Another problem would be the detailed mechanical parts (eg. springs) that first of all must be tediously coated and once dried, the epoxy may split and crack from wear and constant movement. Nobody would want these parts to rust or fill with water.
It is a good idea and may be possible. But it would probably take consideration before building the tank from the beginning. - On Mon, Jan 12, 2009 at 6:58 PM, Xirus <[email protected]> wrote: > > Why not just coat the entire thing in a thin coat of Polyester resin > or Epoxy? that will waterproof it for sure. > > On Jan 12, 4:03 pm, Mike Måne <[email protected]> wrote: > > I wonder if I should build my Sherman convertable to the DD Sherman with > a > > canvas screen tub . . . .
