Posted By: Gary, Santana 2023A, Milwaukee Date: 4/14/08 9:10a.m. Report: outside forum guidelines In Response To: Alternative Ballast Tank Coating (link) (Tom, 2023A, Coupeville WA) I just spent a half hour checking out the supplied website. It does sound ideal, and I like the unconditional lifetime warranty. The ability to 'ease' the entire process by applying the rubber much like a thickened paint certainly has major advantages. It'll be cheaper, faster... and I like it! Wish you'd done your tank with it a few years back, so I could hear your testimonial, though. I read everything on their site, and it just got better and better. I think, I know I'd LIKE, if everyone were to check this product out and post their comments. George, Allen, others who have yet to coat their inner tank... this might be the 'next best thing'. However, if I do decide to use it, I believe it'd be in conjunction with some fiberglass work, too, in some spots. But the idea of simply 'painting' a few coats of this rubber on... gotta admit, it does sound sweet.
