Painting a tank and pan/hump

What do you guys suggest/recommend as far as type/brand (with out breaking the bank) for painting a tank? My main concern is fuel resistance (damn over zealous fuel pumps!)

I'm guessing that a fuel resistant paint is more expensive so can I match what ever I use on the tank for the pan for cheaper?
 
Rattle can for base, spraymax 2k clear. Best bang for your buck

"very high chemical, petrol and weather resistance for high-quality and long lasting sealing of repairs and new paint jobs on vehicles and motorcycle"

That pretty much sums it up.

Has anyone found a similar product that is not high gloss? Looking for a clear that will maintain a flat finish.
 
I just picked up one can of 2K for my project. May get another just to make sure I have enough for the tank and seat. I found it for $16.00 at the local auto paint supply. I am using the gloss clear since I am going over metallics. However te store I was at had the 2K clear in a flat.

FYI,

Excellent news! I'll have to go searching for it in my area.
