Every gas station has this paste. But the more the gas station looks like a 7-11 the less interest you will find in your project.

Self or another crew member - (req'd) weekly diesel fuel tank "stickers" for 30 years.
Preferred product - "Kolor Kut Water Finding paste" (Google it).
Works for all petro products.
