I have never heard anything positive about Kreem.

I tried POR-15 in a fiberglass tank or two. That was a mistake. And that mistake was mine. It probably works ok in metal tanks.

For fiberglass I will only use Caswell's epoxy.

Kreem has worked very well on all the metal tanks I have used it on. It is critical to remove as much rust as possible if the tank is rusted. I would not use it on a fiberglass tank. My experience in using it on a '75 Bultaco tank was less than successful.

I would try to patch it from the outside, use some epoxy, jb-weld, or marine tex, if it's a small leak it wont take very much, I'm guessing it's leaking from a cracked weld, I don't recomend Kreme, it doesnt last but a few years then starts to peel.
