It seems most guys are using an epoxy primer or fuel tank sealant. I've seen the fuel tank sealant turn a sort of greenish, yellowish gray in less than a year and I haven't heard of an epoxy primer that doesn't yellow. Does anybody know of an epoxy primer that doesn't yellow? Should the primer be top coated with paint or clear coated? Also, does anybody have any experience with Zolatone coatings? The literature looks promising. Is Zolatone suitable for this application? Thanks, Jon Hults Legacy in SoCal
