To repair fuel tank leaks requires the correct products and some basic preparation work.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Materials or Products Needed<\/h3>\n<p>When the fuel tank still has gas inside, the 2 Part liquid epoxy system will not be very effective. The fuel will not dissolve the epoxy; however, the fuel will leak through before the epoxy cures properly. So, in the end, you remain with the same issue. The correct material to use in this situation is a gas tank repair epoxy putty compound stick, which allows you to do a wet repair. This 2-part epoxy putty stick comes as a single stick, where the two components have already been measured out.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">.asa2_horizontal_box {background-color:#ffffff !important;border:1px solid #c9c9c9;

The leak may be tough to find. However, you can use a towel, simply dry the tank which should allow you to see where the leak is.<\/p>\n<p>When the tank is very dirty or rusty, you will need to use a little brake cleaner. Now that you have successfully located the leak, mark the spot. The area around the leak now needs to be thoroughly cleaned, make sure it is clean for about 3 to 4 inches around the leak. Use some sandpaper to clean the entire area you just marked off, making sure it is clean down to the bare metal surface.<\/p>\n<p>This sanding process has a two-fold purpose, firstly it removes any rust, old paint, road dirt or muck from the fuel tank. Secondly, it provides the epoxy putty with a good rough surface to cling to.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #00b7d5;\"><strong>Finally, use some cleaning solution to getrid of all the dirt, and do this several times until you are satisfied that the area is properly clean.<\/strong><\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-7712\" src=\"https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy.jpg\" alt=\"gas tank epoxy\" width=\"848\" height=\"566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy.jpg 848w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-150x100.jpg 150w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-262x175.jpg 262w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-162x108.jpg 162w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/resin-expert.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/gas-tank-epoxy-610x407.jpg 610w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 848px) 100vw, 848px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>How to Apply the Gas Tank Epoxy Repair Putty Compound?<\/h2>\n<div class=\"su-list\" style=\"margin-left:0px\">\n<ul>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-circle-right\" style=\"color:#007aff\"><\/i> Cut off the required length of epoxy putty you need, making sure there is enough to cover the entire area you have just cleaned<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-circle-right\" style=\"color:#007aff\"><\/i> Blend the black and white components by mixing the colors, you should end up with a dark gray color<\/li>\n<li><i class=\"sui sui-chevron-circle-right\" style=\"color:#007aff\"><\/i> Before you apply the epoxy blend, ensure that the area is still clean and dry.
