Elden,
I put on the first coat tonight. I'll redip tomorrow night and then let it 
cure a couple days. I got my sealer from a radiator repair shop. I've used 
it before on some tanks with good results. Don't know how well it stacks up 
against some advertised in GEM.

The float had a good coat of shellac but it had a few bad cracks. Nothing 
appeared to be flaking off nor did the tank sealer appear to attack it.

John
