Yep, POR15 is good stuff. I repaired one sieve^Wtank with it and it held nicely. Nowadays I give a precautionary dose to any tank that looks even a tad rusty on the inside. It is important to get the worst of the rust out first and make sure it is completly dry. I use about a pintmug of small gravel and shake until my arms hurt, others suggest nuts&bolts. Always remove all petcocks, drains, etc first. -- 03 GS500K2 76 Honda 400/4 project, 78 400/4 in black 68 Bantam D14/4 Sport (Classic) 06 Sukida SK50QT (Slanty eyed shopping trolley)
