TCP Global 5 Gallon (20 Liter) Heavy Duty Pressure Pot for Resin Casting - Powder Coated Air Tight Tank with Clamp Lid, Wheels & Pressure Gauge - Perfect for DIY Epoxy Resin Molds, Jewelry Making & Art Projects

It’s a good tank. In the end I’m pleased with how it works however…I did have some issues getting a seal that I eventually sorted out through trial and error. First almost all the fittings were tight but not tight enough to prevent a slow loss of pressure. Soapy water trick eventually solved this. Second the tank is shipped in a near useless cardboard box that was so battered and beaten that I wondered why they bothered at all. It’s a good thing that the loose parts are placed inside the tank prior to shipping or none of them would have been in the box. This lack of proper packaging I expect why another leak was created. There was a dime sized chip in the paint on the rim of the tank right where the lid gasket sits. Because the paint is thick, the lid gasket would not conform to the shape between where there is paint and no paint . The leak was slow but noticeable. In 12 hours it would lose 20 psi. Sanding the paint either side of the chip to reduce the ridge between paint and no paint, corrected the problem. The poor packaging also resulted in one of the lid clamps arriving bent. Fixable but when you spend $1000 canadian I would have thought it would be packaged well enough to ship it without damage. If it didn’t have to go through customs and take so long to be replaced I would have sent it back for a replacement that was undamaged. All of this said, it’s a good tank. Large enough for bigger castings to fit. Built strong enough to survive relatively well despite being battered during shipping. If you can get one without the damage from inadequate packaging then it’s 5 stars.The unit is heavy and well built. The only problem I have with it is that there was a nut and lock washer missing from the package. No big deal, but it was used to hold on one of the casters and was METRIC! That was no surprise since this was made in China. It's just a pain in the but to source a replacement of unknown size. Only one trip the Home Depot and buying both SAE and Metric nuts that looked like they would work.I don't know if it is meant to hold a pressure for a long period of time but it seems to kick in my compressor every 60-90 minutes. Seems well built and has passed the soap suds leak test not sure where the air is going thoughTank works fine after I had to make some adjustments.Showed up with 4 leaks in the attachments on the lid so it wouldn’t hold pressure. Three of them were all from the regulator. Got tired of taking it off and on trying to stop the leaks so just removed it all together and only have the 1/4 turn valve in place with the QD inlet. Holds pressure just fine now.Also the overpressure relief valve was set to around 20psi so I couldn’t get it up to the max pressure of 50psi. Easy adjustment, however the product as a whole was not straight out of the box usable.My old pressure pot failed me. This one is better constructed and will meet my needs. It is ready to use out of the box, you have to attach the casters, I love the regulator. You can set it to the pressure that you need, and you cannot over pressure the pot.ThanksOMG I LOVE this!!I love the size of this pressure pot. It will hold almost all the different size pieces I will be working with.UPS bent one of the latches during shipping, didn't find it till after the drive left and I opened the box.I fixed it and it works great.
