Default plating cycle gas tank

I'm restoring gas and oil tanks on an antique cycle. I've used gas tank sealers before but I'm not pleased with the results. I think Indian used to plate their insides of gas tanks with tin. First question- Would this feasible to do at home with a 3 gallon gas tank? Secondly- Would another plating compound be a better metal protectant than tin? Thirdly- How would I do it and how best to prepare the metal? Thank you in advance for any help.
