Has anyone tried or had experience with either of these products?

Are they comperable? I have used Kreem in the past. But never again.

I am hoping for a harder more durable long term fix.

Bets regards,

I had pretty good luck with POR-15 but eventually
got the tank welded a couple years later when
a hairline crack finally re-opened. For a crack
near a mount bracket, welding was a better fix.

I had minor problems with a POR-15 buildup on
the inside of the petcocks and I had to open
them out a little so I could slide the petcock
and filter back in.

I have never used POR-15 but I have used Kreem more than once. I
used KBS on the last tank I sealed. KBS seems extremely tough,
where I spilled it on my rollaround cabinet, nothing has taken it
off, so far. For best results with any tank sealant, you still
have to do all the normal de-rusting and cleaning steps. You also
have to rig up some sort of blower to make sure the coating dries
completely (3-4 days is recommended!) before you use it.

I would use KBS again.

I haven't but a mate has recently used POR 15. So far, so good. Hard
work (or just good exercise) shaking the tank for the recommended
time, apparently.

I tried the following on my tank after sanding the paint off and
enlarging the pinholes slightly. All failed.
JB Weld
muffler putty
body filler cream
two part epoxy putty that dries like steel, can be sanded and will cure
under water.

You might have also tried house paint, mayonnaise mixed with

Yes I tried the epoxy putty that was specifically meant as a gas tank
sealer and it did not work. Thats why I tried the other options.

Are you talking about the stuff that comes in a two-part stick
similar to modeling clay, that you mix together? If so, that is
nothing like the products I mentioned and I am not surprised
it didn't fix your problem. Kreem, POR-15, KBS and all other
gas tank sealants of that type are a liquid coating that covers
the entire inside surface of the tank. If you properly de-rust
and prep the tank, they cannot fail to work.
