You are correct, that is hot glue on our air tanks. The low end melting point of polypropylene (material that the tanks are made from) is 130°C, and hot glue guns typically run from 80°C up to 120°C.

Even though there were no visible effects to the tanks when we glued them, we will be replacing these tanks. Thanks for the heads up!
