Heres the deal i am building a plywood tank, i have fiber glassed the inside, i was thinking about buying the sweetwater epoxy paint but your talking over 60$ for one gallon, i dont need the paint to seal the tank i have put like 10coats of resine to do that, so is there any other options when it comes to paint i can put on the inside of the tank?
Paint for inside of tank?
- Thread starter mosthated
- Start date
there might be paints out there that are safe, but I'm pretty sure your supposed to paint it then cover it with epoxy/resin.

Krylon doesn't spec anything for Fglass that I could find.
Some boat (marine) paints (not anti-fouling) can stay fully submerged by only lasts a year or so. (I've used a couple but it's been a while).
Check boat refinishing supplies?

drylock is $22 a gallon a lowes and you can have them add color to it, but they can only do lighter colors cause you can only add 2oz of color per gallon....
I bought some epoxy paint that is suitable for use in potable water tanks, it came from dupont, it was a 2 part mix and a real pain to work with, it was about $50.00 a gallon.
Sweetwater paint your looking at $57 a gallon then shipping cost from Fla. to your zip for 7 lbs and $20 Hazmat shipping fee. Or go back where you got your marine epoxy and get more plus whatever color pigment you want. It might be cheaper. The sweetwater 2 part epoxy is already tinted for you with the pigments.
