What is the mesh?

The BackBone Fiberglass Mesh is used to reinforce areas of your tank that need extra strength. If you have pinholes or weak areas, you can use the mesh with some Tank Sealer on the outside of your tank to reinforce that area.

Using BackBone Mesh for Exterior Pinhole Repair

  1. Prior to patching, prep the outside and inside of the tank with KBS Klean and RustBlast, and allow all surfaces to dry completely.
  2. Begin by sealing the inside of the tank as outlined in the standard directions.
  3. After sealing, immediately use any remaining Tank Sealer to paint a thin layer on the exterior pinhole area(s).
  4. Using a suitably sized piece of BackBone Mesh, embed it directly into the wet Tank Sealer.
  5. Apply another thin coat of Tank Sealer, painting outward from the center. Let cure.

Please review the complete Tank Sealer Application Directions for the straightforward full process.

Reinforcing a Weak Spot?

BackBone Fiberglass Mesh and Tank Sealer work together to strengthen pinholes and thin areas before they become leaks.
