I could possibly put a couple of 3" threaded fittings and then put a threaded plug in there, just enough room to stick my arm in and a paint brush.

                Very jealous I can't make it to the convention ;-)  !!   I'm going to have a hard ballast tank which will be approx 21" in diameter by 36" long.  I don't  really need to access the inside of the tank and I was wondering how I could seal the inside somehow.  Some type of epoxy coating.  But once I do any welding it will desrtoy any coating.  Any ideas ?  
Thanks,    Brian
