This is not a riveted RV tank. I is a welded Acro Sport tank and I have two. A 20 gallon and a 10 gallon. The sealer is for any pin holes in the welds. The tanks set inside the cockpit above my legs so I would like to be sure they do not leak.
One reply - riveted tanks need slosh but welded do not ???
2nd reply - welded tanks need slosh but riveted do not ???
I would really like to hear from someone that has used slosh in a welded tank.
Thanks,
Randy

Maybe I am missing something in this thread, but why slosh an RV tank at all? The riveted tanks go together with Pro-Seal (or whatever Van's is selling now), and you are done. Mine has not leaked since built in 2000, and I run cheap mogas with ethanol when home and 100LL on the "road". All I hear about slosh is the horror stories.

If it is a welded aluminum tank why the need to slosh?
I understand the wett wing riveted ones like the RV need it but if it is
welded it should not need it. Or am I way off base here?
