I used this product on an old vintage washing machine tub that leaked and it sealed everything stopped rust I love this stuff. It is the strongest paint on protectant/sealant I have ever used
Douglas Wright Jr –
Works great it sealed the tank and sealed the few pin holes I didn’t know about. This was better buying a new tank

I used this on a rusted tank from a DRZ400. Used a chain to loosen up rust, shook it out, rinsed with water, then filled with household vinegar. Left it overnight, dumped it out then rinsed it 3 times with water. Used a hair dryer to completely dry it inside then used the sealer. A little went a long way in coating the inside. Drying took days but was to be expected. Use rubber gloves, it is hard to get it off your hands.

I purchased all the required chemicals, degreaser and metal prep from POR-15. The process was time consuming and then you need to allow it to fully dry (4 days I believe) before putting back into service. The main thing is that it is working, no leaks from my tractor diesel fuel tank. A major job to remove my fuel tank, but nothing to do with POR-15 product. All the products to perform the job were pretty expensive I would say. But when you consider the cost of a new fuel tank, if I could even find one, it was a bargain.

Easiest part is to paint, prep work is a key to success.
Rust preping, degreasing can be done with anything you want.
But you can’t skip Por 15 metal prep, that’s crucial. I used water to clean it and jumping castle air pump to dry it after.
I only used half of the pint(473ml/8oz) for motorcycle fuel tank and it was plenty, I had to take some extra out. After it appears dry, some material was puddling anyway, had to rotate tank to different position every 10-15 minutes.
Have a plenty of solvent and rugs on hand. Use disposable gloves too.
Good luck.

The same stuff I disliked about this product (this Tank Sealer sticks to EVERYTHING, and the preparation to use it takes patience and time) are the same things that make the results so spectacular! Yes, it takes a lot of time to do the prep (mostly clock time for things to soak), and yes the Tank Sealer is hard to remove from stuff (so wear gloves, cover the outside of the tank with painter’s tape and plastic), but that means it seals your tank and you won’t have to worry about it again.
The whole process consists of 3 or 4 steps. Step (1) is POR-15 Cleaner Degreaser (avail on Amazon) – removes any fuel varnish or other coatings from the inside of the tank. Step (2) is POR-15 Metal Prep (avail on Amazon) – removes rust, etches the metal for better adhesion of the Tank Sealer, and chemically adjust the pH of the surface, too. Each of these steps takes time, because you have to slosh the stuff around in the tank and then leave the tank in various positions to ensure that the “stuff” has time to work on the metal everywhere inside the tank. Then Step (3) is this stuff – the POR-15 Tank Sealer. This goes in and you spend a good while rotating the tank around slowly so this stuff will coat the entire surface of the inside of the tank. That took some finagling for me – because my tank has two drain pipes that run from up by the fuel filler neck to the bottom of the tank where they emerge near the fuel pump. So I built a special paint brush from a cheap 1″ brush and a coat hanger so I could bend it into a shape to get to the pipes through the vacant fuel pump hole.
So what is the 4th step? Well, if you have a LOT of rust (see my first 2 pics, which is actually moderate rust), then Step (0) is to use Evapo-Rust to get it out. This takes time. I had my tank soaking with this stuff in it for 4 days, sloshing it around and leaving it in a different orientation every few hours to make sure every internal surface had its share of Evapo-Rust time.
So doing Step (0) took me four days. Yup, I let it really soak to get ALL the rust out. Then another day or so sloshing around doing Steps (1) and (2). Then you VERY CAREFULLY dry the tank (best to let it get toasty hot in the sunshine after you have dried it out initially). Then you do Step (3) – this POR-15 Tank Sealer. You do the same thing, you slosh it around in there until the entire inside surface is coated. Then you pour out the excess. I actually turned the tank upside down and used a spoon to get the extra paint out. Whatever method you use, don’t leave any puddles of the Tank Sealer inside the tank. Then you leave it for 4 days! No Less! Make sure that stuff is completely cured before you put everything back together and put fuel in it. I spent about 11 or 12 calendar days (on and off, of course for soak time) from start to finish, and you can see the result in Picture #3! Couldn’t be more pleased.
Some quick pointers:
1) Buy some Oatey or other pipe plugs to plug the tank holes. I used a conical rubber plug with a tightening screw in it for the fuel filler, and a cylindrical 2.5″ pipe plug with a tightening screw for the fuel pump hole. Amazon has plenty of options, I am sure they have ones that will fit YOUR fuel tank.
2) Use painter’s tape (not duct tape because it may pull paint off) and plastic sheeting to wrap your entire tank right up to the holes with the plugs. That way, any stray Tank Sealer won’t get on the outside of the tank and mess up your paint job – which it will if you leave it for long.
3) Wear gloves, because this stuff sticks to your hands apparently just about as well as it sticks to the tank.
4) Do all the fluid changes and so forth OUTSIDE where you aren’t going to make a mess inside your nice house or shop.
5) Don’t rush it and make sure to follow the product’s directions carefully – and you’ll get great results, too!

Read ALL the directions and go to the website. I would also suggest getting the kit as opposed to buying things individually. I saved a 97 Lincoln Mark Viii from the crusher and with it being a 2 year body a lot of parts are hard to find. And rather than put a fuel cell in the trunk I gave this a shot. The tank had almost like barnicals where water had found it’s way into the tank (ethanol fuel) and sat for about 7 years. So it leaked and no aftermarket replacement one available for the Gen 2 cars. Prep took days I started with rocks and gravel to knock the big stuff loose and then rinsed and shop vacuum out the rest. Then used the degreaser and hot water twice and let the tank air dry in the sun 2 days and in a climate controlled shop 2 days. Then use the metal prep(this also takes time) and last mix the por 15 sealer WELL. Pour the can into the tank and slowly turn it end to end front to back stand it up and roll it to get the seem well(I would suggest taping up any openings for this part) go slow and do multiple cycles to make sure you coat the whole tank. Remove the tape and put it in the sun. If you had a bit of excess like I did it will run to the bottom and take forever to cure and will even start to separate. Mine sat in the shop for 2 days and was still runny shop heat was set between 65 and 70. If you have excess turn the tank again end to end front to back and get it thinned out or you will be 8 days plus making absolutely sure it’s fully cured like I did before installing the tank. Sun and a breeze seems to have helped my cure time a lot. If you have pin holes don’t worry this will eventually seep through but it definitely sealed it. Painted the tank with an enamel based paint to stop surface rust. Have had gas in the car for about 3 weeks and hasn’t leaked a drop.
