Fuel Tank Repair Kit

Epofer TANK (8151) is a high-strength epoxy resin designed for solvent resistant laminates and the interior coating of unleaded gasoline tanks. Its advanced formulation provides maximum adhesion and a uniform, durable coating, protecting the treated surface against corrosion, wear and fuel vapors.

✔ Main Characteristics

• Epoxy resin for fuel tanks and resistant coatings.
• Maximum chemical and mechanical resistance, ideal for demanding environments.
• Low viscosity, easy application and high impregnation of reinforcements.
• High adhesion on different substrates, guaranteeing durability.
• Available in 1.2 kg kits, perfect for industrial projects.

✔ How to Apply

For a perfect and durable coating, follow these steps:

• Clean the tank thoroughly with Ferrokleen and metal items such as chains or nuts to remove dirt.
• Once completely dry and degreased we will make the mixture.
• Prepare the mixture by combining Part A (base) with Part B (catalyst) in a ratio of 100:20 by weight.
• Pour the mixture into the tank and rotate it continuously to cover all internal walls, sealing pores and creating a uniform layer.
• Once the first rotomolding is applied, we will continue for 90 min in 10 min intervals.
• Let the product cure between 18 and 24 hours depending on the ambient temperature to obtain maximum chemical and mechanical resistance.

✔ Attention to Temperature

At low temperatures, Part A (base) may become more viscous and generate a grainy effect, similar to what happens with olive oil or honey.

Do not worry, this does not mean that the resin has been damaged, but in this state it cannot be used because the catalyst would not react correctly.

To solve this problem, heat the product by placing it near a heat source (radiator) or immersing it in a water bath. Wait until it reaches the optimum temperature for use: 20-25ºC. Applying it cold may leave areas without hardening.

✔ Key Benefits

• Forms a uniform, tough coating on tanks and structures.
• Prevents fuel vapors from damaging the tank's exterior paint.
• Offers high chemical resistance for long-lasting protection.
• Adheres to multiple materials, ensuring excellent adhesion.
• Ideal for automotive, industrial and chemical exposed structures.

✔ Product Performance

For a 40 liter tank, you will need approximately 1 complete kit. In smaller tanks, you can adjust the amount of mixture used.
