What's wrong with your tank that it needs replacing?

Get the info off the data plate and search for tanks that match that info. If you want to post the info here we'll be glad to help find a replacement.

Some of the paint is bubbling (pushing on it and it feels soft), I do not know if that means the tank needs replacing for just cleaning and repainting?

I recently upgraded the 20lb tanks on my fiver to 30lb. First one I ordered online was a Flame King from Lowes and was about $85.00. Second one I ordered was the same brand, but got it cheaper from Walmart.com for $67.00. I was originally going to order them from Amazon a few months back, but the same size tanks from Wellington now go for about $120 each.

You realize the OP has a motorhome with a permanent mount DOT tank?

Sorry, didn't know, but thanks for clearing that up!

I'd empty the tank and remove it and clean the bubbling paint off it and if you have any doubt, have it checked by a propane company to see if it needs replacing or if it can just be repainted.
