Default Fuel tank frustration

Did you check Ronco for a tank? They make more stock shapes than anyone I
know, and are very easy to work with. http://www.ronco-plastics.com/.


My holding tanks are Roncos. No question that Ronco has the best
selection and best quality but the last time I checked they only build
water and holding tanks. HDPE is fine for water and holding but not for
diesel. They do use cross linked PE in their industrial chemical line
but for some reason they don't want to use it in their marine line.

OK, Check with Ezell Industies Perry Fl. they made my tanks with 5052 H2 and
they were beautifuily done. Mine were 100 gallon but the prices you
mentioned should no problem not that money makes any difference. phone 850
578-2558 Dave Miller
Try also Rds Mfg also in Perry 850 584-6898
no personal experience with Rds but they make for some nice boats I have
been on.
Get some pro help here and move on to some good stuff like sanding and
grinding. I do hope you take take my advise on priming first with self
etching primer! The dupont Variprime has chromates as well, good for you
too.
