George,
    As usual you raise very good points.  I did think about the rough interior, but
thought it might be remedied by sloshing several coatings of epoxy around the
interior after emptying the styrofoam. Did wonder about adhesion however since I
would not be able to remove any blush from the interior.
    Any merit in discussing a "group purchase" for these holding tanks ?  I realize
that the group purchase idea has not always been successful but if enough people
would be interested in a custom fit holding tank it might be worth looking into.
