Liquid Coating
PAINTING GALVANIZED TANK
I have a 750–1000 gal galvanized holding tank used for maple syrup production. I would like to remove the rust and coat the inside of the tank. Because of the use and need for it to be food safe I am unsure of what to use to coat/paint it. Any ideas? Also, if you have another recommended paint application method besides electrostatic, I’d be willing to entertain that too.
