It looks as though a lot of owners are replacing their 2.0s. We are currently looking to refurbish our 2.0 but invest in another wash to replace our efusion.
Does anyone out there have their old holding tank that does not have a leak? Let me know

Do you know where it leaks? I've taken a stainless tank to a local commercial kitchen fabricator to repair a broken weld and they did a great job.

I've fixed several leaking tanks with high quality silicone sealant. It needs to be clean and dry, then press it into the area firmly so it goes into the crack itself.

I don't remember, it was something from Home Depot, clear silicone sealant and adhesive, probably 3M, something about three times the cost of the cheapest stuff.

just repaired a ss tank holding for chemicals, tank leak spot was fixed but welder told us that material was a low quality stainless with lots of carbon in the metal, he explained that the material would crack went welded due to carbon in the metal and some day it will leak again
