I used the Por motorcycle kit from Frosts to repair my very leaky Pearl petrol tank 7 years ago.
It is still working perfectly.
It took over a week to prepare and carry out the work properly.
As I mentioned at the start, I have now done several more tank repairs using the same techniques, and product, with long-term success, to date.
I chose to have the Chummy tank soldered because the leak was not a pinhole/rot but a stress fracture along the edge of the mounting bracket (quite common in the D tanks), solder in this case has been 100% successful.
Horses for courses and all that...
