Give Tank Boots the Boot, Decals Too!Tank boots on steel cylinders are a necessary evil because steel cylinders always have a round bottom and won't stand up without them. Some decals like the VIP sticker, MOD and Nitrox decals are necessary evils as well. They are evil because they are the most common cause of damage to the tank. In our local dive shop, Fill Express, we perform a huge number of annual visual inspections every year. The most common reason for failing the inspection and condemning the tank is corrosion under the tank boot or a decal. Decals (including those big 'Nitrox' decals) should be scraped off every year during inspection. Only the required decals should be replaced, a single current VIP decal and, if necessary, a nitrox wrap or MOD decals. The tank of the experienced diver is not the one that looks like a steamer trunk covered in stickers of places they've been, it's the one that has a small current VIP decal and nothing else. The moment you get home from the dive knock the boot off then rinse the tank and boot. Leave the boot off until everything is dry, then replace the boot and store the tank standing upright until the next time to go diving. |
