What is best way to paint/coat new BIG table tub

Post by Castlen »

We are building a 11'x60' table and wanted to know what is the best way to coat the inside tank. What do you guys put on the tank to prevent rust and if you paint the tub does it affect the ground.

I use a rustoleum plus hardener and stray the tanks, slats, supports, and frames on the table I built. works great

I also clamp directly to the metal being cut with the Plasma work lead.
