Our club has about 30 aluminum 80 tanks, some painted some bare that need identification marking that will stay put. Anyone have any ideas? Not too expensive?

I use paint sticks. Work fine.
Paint sticks work well. I mark mine around the neck, less likely to get scratched and rubbed off.
I use permanant markers, we end up darkening them in every two years or so depending on use.
The marker lasts quite a while especially when users are not doing their proper wash down / rinse on the gear they use

I use stamps (that stamp into the metal like a hydro marking) to put my unique identifier on each tank I own.

I have seen some people go overboard on stamping and end up with a tank that was worthless at the next hydro...
OP
Rick Murchison:
Someone told me not to because of some DOT regulation.
That was my idea but members of the club executive thought it might be a problem.

I use all of the above and like the paint pens best--put my initials right below the neck. For contents (Nitrox, etc.), duct tape & permanent marker.
