If the tank is still good, you can weld it and have it end up as good as you want to work to get it. The weld material should be as strong as the original material, it's just a matter of getting a good joint. If it is old and brittle, may as well throw it away. If it has been in chemical use, it is sometimes very difficult to get it to weld well, but water tanks that are not ancient usually weld pretty well.

I wouldn't give a nickel for any of the miracle cure products. It's just like steel or aluminum....you can weld it with the same filler material and fix it, or you can waste your time with some sort of putty and end up with it so contaminated that it's impossible to weld when you are done.
