So that's what I did,
Soldered up all the pin holes in the bottom of the tank and then etched, cleaned, dried, and sealed the tank following the instructions in the Kreem kit. I followed the recommendations for "extra protection" and applied a second coat of sealant. As I am not too interested in a major paint job right now, I opted for the quick and dirty rattle can red. Since I had to cut the original straps that held the tank to the brackets, I picked up this 'Breeze, Make a Clamp' kit to make your own hose clamps at my local Ace hardware store. To protect the tank, I installed them over some strips of epdm rubber roofing.
