OMS's tanks are made by Faber to OMS specs, and some of the older ones say Faber on them. Most of the newer ones say OCEAN MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS. The differences are many. They are not the same tank. Also, PST are hot dipped galvanized, not OMS which are spray galvanized. I've heard that the hot dip process will weaken the metal, shortening the service life of the tank. They do seem to scuff and scrape a bit easier than the PST or Genisis but as stated elsewhere they clean up easy enough and do not effect the use.
