I have a few questions so here goes.

1. I'm making a fuel tank for my bike and was wondering what resins to use that are ok having petrol on them for long periods. I currently have the el2 laminating resin and the high temp resin.

2. Also making an exhaust end can using the high temp resin. Does this resin polish up if used as a finishing coat.

3. Can i use the el2 resin to coat a part and then polish it or do i need a different resin for this? If i can what is the best polisbing compound to use? 

Thanks for your patients and any help in advance.

Thanks for the advice I'll get my hands on some of that. That tank is a thing of beauty.
