The perennial problem - tank lining

(1/3) > >>

Grewth:
What's the most durable tank liner on the market now ?
As in available to buy in the UK,  not just California.
I've bought a good few tanks with the remains of failed liners sloshing around inside.
They all claim to be the best.
All claim to be Ethanol proof.
But which ones are actually bulletproof  ?
Will anything last ten years plus  ?

I realise that this might be like starting a "best oil " thread, but I might just gain something useful from it.

Grewth:
I should add that I'm not just posting this to pass the time.
I've just bought a custom tank for one of my bikes - brand new,  all the way from Taiwan.
I'm thinking that I should be sorting the inside of the tank properly,  before I start painting the outside.

Oddjob:
Don't you think you are going OTT on this Grewth? It's a brand new tank, it's not going to rust unless you neglect it. Keep it in use, don't leave it with fuel in it for years. Putting a liner in is asking for trouble, read how many people are struggling to remove them. It has it's uses, it's not in a new tank however.

Bryanj:
Somebody on here found a firm that would plate the inside of an old tank so a new one should be a piece of cake!
