[SEL] Qwik Poly

[Bill Brueck]

Yep, fuel tanks.  Here's before and after of one with a lot more than 1/4
inch holes.  Starting fuel tank from a 41 Deere B.

And repaired 1 rotted corner of a panel on the overhead door to my shop.
Dammed it up with duct tape, poured the poly into the rotted wood fibers,
drilled fresh holes for the hinge/roller business, and saved the door.

I have a project next weekend to replace the latch on a vintage door in
daughter's house.  It's had so many latches and screws over the years that
there's not much wood left to work with yet the door is basically solid.  I
plan to dam the sides up with duct tape, pour the cavity full of KP, and
start over.

Tom,

Kwik-Poly is fantastic for coating and sealing metal fuel tanks. engine gas
tanks, tractor tanks, kerosene lantern tanks, it is great for all of them.
Even if the tank has sizable holes in it if you can block the hole with
something like duck tape it will seal it and the seal will last. I've got
tanks that had 1/4" holes that are still holding after 10 years.

I'm sure there are folks on here who have used it for more creative things
than tanks but it certainly does that job exceedingly well.

Mike
