Fuel tank treatments?

Has anyone used or know anyone who's used one of these fuel tank sealers?Supposedly it coats the inside of a fiberglass tank so that E-fuel is a non issue,but I'm of the opinion that if this stuff worked,I'd have heard and read a lot about it.We've got twin Mercs on the back,and it would be way expensive to have to replace them,thanks.

there's absolutley no way to use the new fuel with a fiberglass tank...sorry...i'm not sure who told you about a coating,but trust me,that's not true...you're gonna have to replace the fiberglass tank with aluminum...sorry...i've replaced quite a few bertram fuel tanks...

It is indeed a Berty.63 express25.It had been sitting for two years,the former owner never used e-gas,so we hadda pull the tanks.The problem is that the tanks are a really oddball shape(as you may be aware)and it'll cost a fortune to have copies made. Thanx for the reply.
