I cleaned the tank as per your instructions and dumped the KBS coating material into the bottom of the tank and used a small paint roller to apply the material to the inside of the tank. I removed the excess material from the tank bottom before letting it set up for a week. I put 90 gallons of diesel fuel( that I had removed and stored in drums) back into the tank and am glad to say that there were NO leaks. Your material was easy to apply and repaired the tank exactly as you said it would.

Thank you very much.”

CAUSE:

Liquid solvent (thinners/reducers) becomes "trapped" in the paint film when the surface layer skins over too quickly, preventing their evaporation into the atmosphere. Solvents that vaporize within the paint film leave bubbles, pinholes or craters as they push through and "pop" the surface. Solvents can be trapped due to:

1. Excessive film thickness from puddling in tank.
2. Too hot and/or too humid atmospheric conditions.
3. Too hot/warm tank conditions.
4. Moisture remaining in tank.

REPAIR:

1. Allow surface to completely cure and reevaluate.
2. Strip out and remove using KBS Strip. Repeat AquaKlean, RustBlast, and Gold Standard Tank Sealer steps.

PREVENTION:

• Allow tank to reach room temperature before applying sealer.
• Do not attempt to apply sealer in direct sunlight, as tank surface and inside air will be too warm.
• Drain out excess sealer.
• Avoid allowing coating to puddle/pool inside tank.
• Avoid too hot/humid atmospheric conditions (ideal = 55°-82°F/13°-28°C)
• Do not allow tank to "cure or dry" in direct sunlight.
• Keep tank away from heat while curing.

“I have used the Rust Seal coating and the epoxy putty with great results from both. I have found the consistency of the Rust seal better than another Stop Rust Coating I have been using for over 10 years. Your product flows and covers better, seems to be a higher solids coating.”

“My boys have bikes that have truly taken a beating with the beach weather! I can’t afford to buy the boys new bikes, that would cost me a small fortune! So, I decided to try out this KBS system. The boys and I decided to just dive into it and see where it took us. Much to my delight, it was an incredible experience. This system was so easy to use, and the end results are beautiful! My boys actually love their bikes more now than they ever did! Keep up the great work KBS!!”
