Let me chew on it and I'll let you know. Thank you for your willingness to help. :-)

Thank you, but I don't need any right now. I'm planning for future projects. Could you post a picture of the can so I could show it around? By the way, what color do you have- I might use some to see how it looks.

Hmmm- bummer dude

"Diamondcote" just brings up "Diamondkote". The PPG stores out here tell me they have never heard of it. Maybe an "East Coast" product?

Jeepsinker- what sheen does Diamondkote come in? Flat, semi, etc. Can you spray it with an HVLP sprayer? Sounds like good stuff- I may try some when I repaint my cargo bed.

Welcome from the far away country of Arizona! Did you go to H.S. in Abq? I went to Sandia.

I repainted my deuce with Rapco semi- gloss- it is durable but faded badly after only 3 months. It is solvent based (Xylene) not oil. I have read many posts regarding Behr house paint- after it fully cures it is nearly impossible to remove and is water based.

Welcome from Arizona- our state animal is the Chupacabra. Post some picks of your new ride!

Ahhh- I see. Good idea.

Wow- your rust problem is much worse than the surface rust on my little can! Good luck & keep us posted! Just out of curiosity, what would another tank cost, assuming the rust wasn't as bad?

Check out www.eastwood.com. They sell a fuel tank sealer kit and various chemicals to clean the tank and prevent flash rust until you can coat it. The ad for the sealer kit also has instructions you can download which explains the entire process and chemicals needed. I have the chemicals and...

Umm, so are we going to find out who it was so we can avoid them, etc.?

If military tent doesn't work out, you might try www.newlifecanvas.com. I got my deuce cargo cover there. I'm not sure what kind of trailer covers they have, but they may do custom work.

I would just wait a while and give it time to cure and see how it looks- may turn out fine. ( Can't do anything else now anyway- lol!)
