That is the exact position mine is in.mine is in the north-east corner pointed to the south-west corner. warms it up well from 40 degrees to 60-ish when I work in it...or stumble around looking for something.

I used to sell Reznor heaters for a living (I'm a commercial HVAC guy), and some models will work with ductwork attached, and some will not. Feel free to either post the M/N (and S/N, if available) of your heater here, or drop me a PM, and I'll be happy to look into this for you.I've wondered about attaching a plenum to the front and running ductwork across the ceiling similar to some of the restaurants around here.
I did add hardener. I thinned it progressively more each coat as well. I think the hardener I had was from Krylon. It was 96 today so I sprayed it in the morning and the sun just baked it all day.Tank looks nice! Did you use any hardener in the Rustoleum? I think it's about the same as the Alkyd enamel paint that Tractor Supply sells for tractors and implements. They sell a hardener you can add to it, and it supposedly makes it dry quicker and makes it retain the shine much longer.
Thanks man. Just wait until I add my sweet wheels I bought for it hahaTank really looks great man.
You should smell water based automotive paint... it's quite refreshingI can smell the paint in them pictures. lol
Could be an iron-oxide primerHere is the tank all stripped down. I degreased it and pressure washed it. It appears to have been red at some point.

I had to lift it off with my cherry picker because it is so heavy....Looks great, but I don't know if the motor on the red compressor is big enough.
