I don't see anything at all about tank covers in the Metal Finishing Guidebook. I think Mr. Garza may have confused your interest in tank covers for an interest in exhaust ventilation systems? If you find a good cover design, let us know; it's certainly an important subject, but one that I don't think has been well covered in the journals or books serving our industry.
