Default Epoxy for Fuel Tanks

Which Epoxys have folks had success using for their fuel tanks? I know that
they don't sell true safety-poxy anymore, has anything taken its place?
This is for auxillary tanks that will only ever have avgas in them . I have
used vinyl-ester for other fuel tank projects but was wondering what in the
epoxy world was woring out for People


Thanks Doug

Hi Doug,
At SNF last week this question was asked at the Aeropoxy booth.
Unfortunately, I did not keep the information [I used safety-poxy in
the Lancair] but a phone call to 800-421-1518 should provide the
correct answer. The salesman was quite convincing IMO. They had a
sample of the fuel tank stuff applied and he assured us that any combo
of alcohol was OK too. Earl
