I have a question.
I suspect you put muratic acid in your tank because there was rust.
Do you think WD is going to prevent rust or are you planning on coating the tank?

I have done a few rusted tanks. Phosphoric acid is usually used. This will give the inside a flash coating of iron phosphate. After that I use POR15 for a coating so gasoline is never exposed the bare metal.
