REFLECTOR: Simple Sump tank question

[nmflyer1 at aol.com]

Jack, 

My older plans said the same thing that yours do. Originally, the tanks were just painted with regular epoxy. Originally built my sump before I found out about Jeffco. Then, when I did the tanks I used Jeffco in there and liked it so much I redid my sump. I cut it open, sanded everything, coated the inside with Jeffco and resealed it. I also sanded down the outside and covered it with Jeffco, since I had plenty. I like it that way & would recommend it.

Hi,

I am in the process of completing the sump tank, and an item in the manual
confuses me(I'm easily confused).
In section 9.5.2 of the XL-RG manual, for "Install the Sump TankCover", the
last item says: "Clean and sand outside
completely as you did the inside and paint out side repeately for a shiny
finish".

Does this mean paint Jeffco on the outside of the tank? I've looked at
several peoples installation online,
and none seem to have painted Jeffco on the outside. Did others do this? Or
am I misunderstanding this
simple sentence?
