Sold my swing-out swing-out tire/jack/gas carrier. In and out of my truck way too often. Ended up putting the tire/jack/gas on my roof rack. However, even after spray painting the gas can with a high-gloss sliver metallic, the gas still expands and leaks out in the sun. I'm guessing a newbie mistake but the gas has now burned the clear coat off my roof. hand on face emoji. Do these cans always need to be upright? How do all of you overlanders out west in the desert deal with this? I'm only in new england and it's def a problem for me.
Any tips?
