Subject: Re: what kind of paint for cylinders ...
Aldo,
many kinds of car paints out there......
I used Porsches 2 compound blue with success, as well as rugh
excavators/ lorries antirust paint, some of my tanks have powder
coating, of these some with zinc undercoating, others phosporic acid
treated, then painted with a very elastic plastic ? matter, then powder
coated.
Time wil tell.
I alway use a kind of fishnetstocking to protect the paint.

Be careful with sandblasting. The German IWK/ Mannesmann, may be Heiser
as well, have an flame sprayes Zinc layer. Do not blast this away, if
the tank paint isn'rotten to the bone ( rust overall)
Greetings from Rasmus ( baltic god of the winds,pretty busy these days)
