NSF certified

I have just called in a favor with a manager/friend of a leading marine coatings company.

I want to apply resin/glass to my new 300+ gal plywood build tank first, and then coat over the resin/glass with a final coat and color.

He has a coating material that is a solvent free epoxy used in potable water tanks (in large ships) and it is NSF certified. Would this material be OK in my tank in relation to NOT killing my fish??

if it's potable... you'll be good to go IIRC

I would say that you're good to go.

I would say that you're good to go.

Now that is good news, thanks for your answers guys. The better news is, I can get the paint for "FREE" and he will even bring it to my home

I have just found out the color of this paint....it comes in either white or cream.

I know it's all about personal preference, but what's everyone's opinion on having light colored tank interior walls??

Are there any positive and negative thoughts on this color??

 

[Bassinkorea]

Anybody got ANY feedback on colors ?? ?? ??

Light colours will always make algal growth very obvious
