I have no idea how this occured but there is now a scratch on the surface. Is this tank still in useable condition. I have used it onl;y once and that was after I found the scratch. It had no issues but I am wondering if it is still safe to use. Here are some pictures:

To be safe, I'd also see if I could get a new coat of epoxy on it __________________ TheAznInvazn's Mini Mart!!! Spyder (STBB) & Ion Mods, Nokia 6200 & Red V3 RAZR, Watch, and MORE!

That scratch is not deep at all and there is plenty of wrapped carbon fiber still on the tank. __________________ 05 PROMASTER , 14" Macdev Matchstick, Kila Drive, Zentriam Valve, ICDU ram, CCM no-rise, Sonic lpr No reason for hope.
