Stainless steel tank coating

September 14, 2009

I made a submersion tank for some heat exchaners out of 304 stainless.The tanks started to rust a wee bit after a leak check.Is there a coating I can put on it to prevent it from doing this?
Thanks!

Really not enough information for a good answer. You could grit blast it clean and coat it with a liquid PVC or a liquid vinyl or you could put a vinyl or plastic liner in it or you could fiberglass it or?
