This is handy to know. lol!

Generally once a tank starts leaking I get so frustrated trying to repair it I end up chucking it in the bin and forking out $ for a new one.

Now if only there was an easy way to repair old metal tanks! I've used poly-weld, but find it is only a temporary fix. I thought I had completely repaired a tank one time, but 6 months later it started leaking again. Maybe I should try painting the entire can in nail polish. lol!

I'm not game to use the welder. "Flush it out thoroughly, leave the cap off and fill it up with water and go outside the shed", they say, and "you'll be right". Yeah mate, but I still don't trust it, and my welding is bad enough as it is, without trying to dodge water and fuel fumes.
