Food Grade Coating for Metal (Steel) Tanks

Q: Stainless Tanks are usually the norm as storage containers for food. Has Science come up with a "Food-Grade Enamel Coating" to line the inside wall of non-stainless Metal Tanks? If so, what Paint Company makes this in the Philippines? How much does this cost?

A: Go to the web sites of www.ameron.com, www.carboline.com, and www.tnemec.com.  They carry the type of coatings you are looking for.

Best wishes,
