Belzona Facts
Applying tar around the tank base had proven to be very temporary and unsuccessful. Belzona® 6111 provides excellent corrosion protection to steel wall and Belzona® 3111 provides flexible weatherproof seal. Customer was so pleased with the results of Belzona that 3 more tanks are scheduled for the same treatment.
