Hello:

I'm working on a large plywood tank and would like to know which Sherwil-Williams Epoxy people HAVE used and have had good luck with long term.
I have found two different types:

EPOXIDEâ„¢ HS TANK LINING
PART A "B62W940"
PART B "B62V940"


TANK CLAD HS
PART A "B62W80"
PART B "B60V80"

Can someone tell me which of the two listed above should use.
Thanks.

i think you mean tile-clad and epo-plex i am a painting contractor and sherwin williams is my primary paint company.i have the painting and coatings system guide.it give the specs ,application,and so on for every paint and coating they make.what do you need to know?

according to the book tile clad is the only one you can use on wood.i have it on my bike shop floors.and it is "sutiable for USDA inspection facilities"the other is for metal or masonary only

actualy tile clad is a good bet but it is not the best product for this job. I know tank clad anhd tank epoxide need to be applied to either steel or a layed fibrglass mesh system for them to work. I think that the epoxy system you want to use is macropoxy 646 for this system i will have to check but i'm perrty shure it will work

I called Sherwin Williams and got no where.

The guy told me the neigher of the types listed above should be used for a fish tank and he also said they would not work on wood.

I have now been looking at "sweetwater" epoxy from Aquatic Eco-systems.

part number PT2 for wood and PT17 primer for my steel

The garf website recommends the EPOXIDE. I am going with the Devoe 233H (Glidden). Just make sure it is NSF61 certified.
