Doug, This sounds like a great idea. Thanks for sharing it as I'm going to be starting on my tanks here shortly. Quick question: Are you roughing the surface before applying the gelcoat or applying it directly and how many coats?

Gives a smooth surface that contaminants can't stick to as well as being totally fuel proof and improving resistance to vibration cracking.
