    will these nicks on this tank be a problem?

    im doing this for a friend... he just recentley bought a crossfire tank off of ebay. 68/45 in hydro... here is the pic of the nicks in it and i am just curious if it will be a problem.



    thanks for your input.

    It might. See if your local shop has an airsmith. If so, have him check it out. If it is a problem demand a refund, but I doubt youll get one.

      yes it will. if it has visible scratches or dents it cannot be filled or anything. i can't find the information on the hazmat.dot.gov site. but it's there.

        I had some scratches like that, though I can't tell how deep the scratches are in the pic. Sent it to be rehydroed and it passed.

          It looks like it is just a scratch in the epoxy clear coat.

          I thought you needed to get down to the fibers for it to be a hazard case?

            SPend $15-20 for a hydro test, and if it passes, ask what precautions to take and go to town.

              As long as it doesn't cut into the fibre or cause the fibre to start to unravel, it should be fine. It doesn't need to be hydo tested but have it checked out at an inspection facility.
              Except for the Automag in front, its usually the man behind the equipment that counts.
