 So you are trying to say the plasticizer is kinda like putting alum on your lips. It is shrinking(puckering ) the tank but causing no harm. If you didnt read my post,my 2 tanks are now 1/2 inch shorter and smaller in diameter than a bottle of coke.I expect the bottles are less than 16 oz instead of 20 oz now.
Guess we are still learning.
Good to talk to you at the Nats.
