Hi everyone!
I inherited a fairly new 6' x 2' galvanized horse trough and would like to make it into an above ground plant and fish tank. I would like to make the inside black in color but am no thrilled with using a liner due to wrinkles, overlap on the sides, etc. can anyone recommend a good 'rubber' type of product I could paint on the inside?

Awesome forum and thank you in advance from a noob!

Never had a problem yet .I have fish in it and plants .Product is called flex seal for leaks and comes in black or white .You may have to see if it will stick to metal in that kind of tank .I know it sealed up leaks in my gutter also
