What is "sloshing compound"?

See http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalo.../sloshcoat.php or similar.
It's a coating inside a fuel tank to 'fix' leaks. The tank I got from
Wentworth had the coating inside and it was peeling and flaking off. I
didn't check for that when I picked up the tank. Once it starts peeling off,
it's difficult to get the coating all removed without taking the tank apart.
