Subject:      Propane Tank Refurb
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii


I dropped my propane tank yesterday to do some cleaning up and painting.  I
was able to remove the stamped, metal tag from the tank.  It was held on by
one spot weld and there was considerable rust underneath.  I cleaned up the
tank and rock shield with a 3M flexible disk and painted with rust-proof
primer.  Will finish with gloss white.  Any ideas on how to re-attach the
tag?  Could it be perma-texed on or some other adhesive?  Something that
would seal it and keep the moisture from getting behind it would be nice.
Maybe I should just keep the tag inside somewhere?   Are any of the decals
that were on the rock shield available?  It would be nice to have these to
put back on.
