I was lookin for a way too hang and paint my rupp tank and get full coverage even through the tank mount holes.
I needed to too spray it outside and move it indoors too dry and do it multiple times between color and clear coats obviously without touching it.
One thing ive learned over the years of tinkering and try to do any time i paint a visually important peice is to have the part positioned the way its is seen when mounted, so i didnt wanna spray the tank while its hanging upside down or vertically even though sometimes to get good coverage youll need it upside down.
Luckily dang near any tank has a area under the cap that coverage isnt super important.
So i figured i would share a pic of my simple easy way of hanging it securely and still be able too move it around easily.
I used 1/4 20 threaded rod and some appropriate sized washers, but if a larger tank is being painted you might want some larger threaded rod.
