There isn't a coating on the inside of the 4000/URQ tank-aside from the rust in the tank :)
These are pics of fixing mine.

however, I believe that getting the failing coating out may require
cutting the tank open.

Let us know what you come up with

John, I had mine completely reconditioned in 2002 due to the
debris 
blocking up the screen filter in the bottom of the tank. It was done
locally by 
a franchised 'RENU' dealer which I found and researched on the web. They
cut 
the bottom out of the tank, remove the screen completely clean/sandblast
the 
inside, replace with a patch where they cut in, flow in a new plastic
liner 
which is then oven-baked in place, and then paint/undercoat the
exterior. A small 
plaque is affixed to the outside of the tank and it is guaranteed for
ever. 
Cost $400 though. You might want to consider it as even if you get a
tank from a 
scrapyard cheaply it probably will have the same problems you have now 
anyway.
