Does anybody have any experience with an epoxy plywood tank used for saltwater? Does the salt eat away at the epoxy or any other possible issues? Finishing my plywood tank and trying to find out before I commit to salt.

Don't think salt will eat at fiber glass epoxy steer clear of anything rubberized or latex - but if salt creep gets on bare plywood - you bet it will - best bet there is an oil based primer/sealer like killz that has no contact with the intank water
 
I don't think it's a fiberglass resin. I attached a picture of the epoxy paint I used. I'd like to have it be a saltwater tank, but just started thinking about how salt eats through a lot of things. Do you think with this product application it's okay to do salt?
