I've got a POS with a slight leak, barely a weep really. Is there an easy (CHEAP) fix for this, or do I just ignore it and keep a positive attitude?

Here you go Nudie, ive used this shit before and can highly reccomend it. Re-did a tank off a zzr250 chunk of shit that was pissing out fuel, and 3 years on its still going strong. I used the liquid version, which i got off a mechanic that was listed on their website. http://www.ftrs.com.au/redkote/red_kote.php
Just click on dealers in Australia and it will bring up a mapski.

Wow, that stuff sounds great, copes with ethanol too! I'd heard good things about POR-15 but Red-Kote sounds even better!

What sort of $$$ is the Red Kote stuff?

Just spoke to one of the suppliers. He said he keeps the powdered stuff that you mix with acetone to make up the liquid. It's about $80 and is enough to coat a 12 gallon tank. So I'm guessing you could just mix up enough for what you need and keep the rest for laters.
I'm going to go get some next week and give it a bash
