I take my tanks to the radiator shop.
They cook them out and line them cheaper than I can.

be carefull regarding liquid liners as I have found thet the new gasoline with ethanol content can "delaminate" liner material and make a mess inside your tank and stop fuel delivery.

I did find that you have to mix the material VERY well before putting it in your tank. I thought I had done enough mixing but found a large glob of goo at the bottom of the can when pouring it into the tank. Even with that, the tank has held up well, it sealed some pin holes and when I adjusted the sending unit a week or so ago, the inside looked like I had just put it in.

I have a tank relined and coated by Renu and it leaks. I don't know if it ever held gasoline. It shows little wear but is bubbling up at the tank and neck seams. New tank for me. Also, the fuel level sender was coated and the stuff will scrape off with a fingernail. The float too has leaked. So there is my 2 cents.

X3 on the POR15 Gas Tank Sealer Kit. I used it on my 40's tank, which had a few small pinhole leaks, & have no problems. It's been about 5 years now. The gas tank enclosure, on the tub, really traps mud & debris, so I cut that out. So, no future drainage or rust problems there. I have a skid for protection too.
