TD, I think that matches just fine.
Nope.
The guy that painted my 5 gallon tanks told me about it.
I went ahead and let him put the sealer in since he already had the tanks for painting.

Even stock tanks have sealers but they soon give up and peel. Putting the sealer on correctly is the trick. I imagine its like epoxy paint so cleaning and preperation is everything.

The first part is an acid to clean out the interior of the tank.
POR 15 is thin and Caswell is thick.
Both are good.

This is true! I have used Por15 on two bikes and have never had a problem with it. The Eastwood Company sells a kit that has all of the chemicals needed to do the job.
