Fuel tank outer surface corrosion coating

Post by stearmoth »

Hi Hatzers,

WHile planning the priming of the wing fuel tank's top surface, the question came, if a corrosion protection of the remaining external surface would be necessessary or even mandatory?
What isthe experience of the community and especially the owners of older well used Hatzes?
Your input would be appreciated!

Kind regards
