Making your tank different.

[fire5man]

I was just wondering if anyone out there has designs painted on there tank. I always see stickers but nothing tattoo like designs. My brother is an great artist and has put together some great designs on my fire helmets. Real makes it personal. If you have any can you post them. Tell me what type of application was used.

I usually just write my name on the crown with a marker.

And the fill pressure. I hate it when I get gyped because they think my HP130 is an LP120 or something...

The best way to make your tank "different" is to keep it sticker free. It will really be easy to see on a boat or at the beach. You'll be the only one who hasn't mucked up their cylinder with stickers that peel, fade and leave indelible marks.

I bet you could take your tank down to an auto body shop and get a really cool design! If you really want to stick out I think that would be the way. I have never seen a cool design painted on a tank..

I pee'd on mine to mark it and it turned yellow. Since then I have seen a lot of yellow cylinders.

Just curious what is wrong with that? I have one on a tank, but don't like it so I pull it off when I use the tank.

I used one of them to write my lobster permit #s on my tanks

Exercise caution with the auto body shop. If they bake on the paint job your tank will be exposed to temperatures that would weaken the metal, especially if it is an aluminium tank.
