Gas tank sealer
 

2 Attachment(s)
About 35 years ago I sealed my Model A gas tank with this "sloshing compound" (bought in New Zealand) and it has worked very well ever since. Now I want to get some more for another gas tank, but I don't know what the product is called or whether it is still available. Problem is, the NZ company imported it from USA then re-packaged it and sold it here under its own label, so I assume it cannot be identified under its US trademark or product name. I think the NZ company is now defunct. Its a good product, so can anyone help?
Mac.

If you are needing a sealer for another tank rather than applying a second layer to the one you have already done, you might consider this one. I've used it and so long as the instructions are followed, it is great. Not cheap but since when has anything good been cheap??
Have a look at this:

we used the US TANK SEALER made from the same people as POR-15 - its one of those products you must follow to the T in the prep area but once its on it aint comin off... We used it in a VW Ghia gas tank about 15 years ago and still looks great.

Is it available in NZ though? If NZ is anything like here, importing it will be an administrative nightmare.

"Seals pinholes and seams.
Now sold on every continent, US Standard Fuel Tank Sealer is the toughest, non porous coating, flexible coating made. Forget zinc chromate and rust inhibitors"

Is New Zealand a continent?
