These bikes came with plastic tanks. Over time the tanks, which were originally white, have become discolored.<br /><br />The fuel in them has penetrating and turned them a yellow color. I can paint the tanks but need a sealant to prevent the fumes from inside the tank peeling the paint. Do you think your product would seal the inside of a plastic gas tank? I have spare tanks so I could try if you think your product will adhere to plastic.
