How come? Just to use up any that is left over? Or is there a structural reason for this?
Exactly the reason TheFishGuy said. The outside of the tank is bound to get wet or damp. A single coat will take maybe a gallon or so and will protect the outside from moisture.
I had 28 tanks up until recently. Sold off everything under 65 gallons. Need to find another 75 though for the bottom level of a stand I made. 65 is too tall.
There's never enough tanks. I'm working toward the 4300 being the only tank in the main part of the house though.

Figured out how to do the floor. I can do the entire floor as long as I leave a space for the ladder. I was able to walk on the floor 5 minutes after I coated it and barely left any shoe prints. The ladder did take up two small spots though when I put my weight on it to get out. It wasn't dry, so I don't think there will be a problem if I alternate sides of the tank.
I poured some on the floor then rolled it out. Really easy to work it to where it was even.
Tomorrow night I have something to go to then I plan to come home and trim out all the bare surfaces. Starting Saturday I plan to do a coat a day on the entire tank.
