Is it fool/fuel proof? As long as it doesnt leave me with green crotch that sounds alot easier & cheaper  :mrgreen: Should be easy to touch up as well

I've read of using Rit dye to color the tank. You need a big enough container I  believe to submersed the whole tank. YouTube it.

I'd still want a bit of translucency so a light green wash should do what I want, gonna be a big container for a 6.6 gal tank  :-P
