Have a gas tank I fixed and painted. I used the krylon paints to finish the project and it looked great. Then I put gas in and a drop fell on the pain that was a week old. It made the paint soft and almost like a bubble that was deflated. I thought it hadnt cured but recently had a seal leak and some fuel ran onto the tank. Now the whole side is soft and stickey. What type of paint should I have used? I cant seem to find anyone with an answer locally so thought I would come to the master of restoration.

For rattle can – Engine Enamel is very fuel resistant. The kind that is lower temperature (usually rated to 500F) comes in all sorts of colors.

I think Eastwod has a clear paint in a can that is chem resistant. If you use it as a top coat you can paint anything you want under it. They also have lots of powder coat colors, no problems with gas there.
