Did you flame treat the plastic before using the Gflex? You have to
or it won't stick. Here is a good video explanation of how to flame
treat. The flame treat portion starts at about 2:15 into the video.

I've purchase some of this Poly Weld but haven't used it yet so I
can't give a review. I'm still shovelling snow these days so it isn't
warm enough to try this stuff on a tank leak.

I developed a crack in one of my rain barrels - tried Gflex and it
didn't stick. Ended up with some weather-stripping and a piece of
aluminum bolted through the barrel.
Anyone know what material a 30-1 forward tank is made of? Mine has
a crack in the seam at the lowest part of the tank.

You can use West System GFlex epoxy to repair
a polyethylene holding tank. It will work on high and low
density polyethylene so if you're not sure which you have, it
really doesn't matter. Check out the West System site for
additional documentation and videos. It's a pretty unique
product. I have used it for other projects but not on
polyethylene. http://www.westsystem.com/ss/g-flex-epoxy/
