Nice paint job! One less thing to blame flared birds on.
Those kind of things make me crazy too!

Just curious..is there a coast guard rule about all portable fuel tanks must be coast guard approved red?
Wouldn't want marine police to give you a ticket.

I thought about that, and then thought Wayne would not worry about it, so I said what the heck!

Lol I will be painting one here pretty soon. I have decided I put the fuel tank on the front deck of the ducktoon boat in case there is a leak and to also put more weight forward. My paint job won't look so petty.

Good job Guy, but a waste of time. The paint "will" come off by the end of season. I think the plastic tanks breathe or something, I did the same thing on a boat once and the paint came off pretty bad in a few months. It will be tan and red poke a dots in no time.
Wayne, on my boat I just slip the tank into a cheap camo Tshirt, easy for anyone to do.

No, rustoleum I think. I have used that krylon fusion before I know it is suppose to be good for plastic, at least that is what they say, I'm not sure it is any better than the rest.
