KBS Coatings Posted May 10, 2010 Report Posted May 10, 2010 Here is a great troubleshooting page for you: http://www.kbs-coatings.com/fix-it-guide-tank-sealer.html CAUSE: Improper preparation of the substrate (cleaning & etching). Inadequate drying of tank interior prior to applying sealer. Too hot/humid atmospheric and/or tank surface conditions during application or curing. REPAIR: Strip out Tank Sealer (Using KBS Strip). Repeat AquaKlean, RustBlast, and Gold Standard Tank Sealer steps. PREVENTION: Thoroughly clean and prepare all tank surfaces according to product recommendations. Allow tank interior to dry completely before applying sealer. Allow tank to reach normal room temperature before applying sealer. Allow tank to dry slowly at room temperature. Do not attempt to "speed up" the cure time by placing tank in direct sun or near heat source. Quote
