[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 4256103, member: 26737"] If it's leaking that much through pinholes, it sounds like the walls are shot and they'll be better off replacing it instead of trying to patch it. The soil in central Oklahoma is pretty danged corrosive to iron/steel, which is why we don't use a lot of iron/steel piping buried in the ground. I'm not entirely surprised that a company would use crap materials, especially when the gov't was handing out money for the installation of storm shelters, but using thin gauge steel in an Oklahoma in-ground shelter just seems criminally negligent.
