New ones are not same quality as old OEM German ones. If its just surface rust and not pitted it can be cleaned and made like new. Eastwood has a cleaner and coating for treating the inside of the tank. I've heard people clean the inside by putting a chain or rocks in side and really shaking it then coating it. I bought a Brazilian made one from CIP1 for around $60 - quality ok but not great. .

Good time to do it since you'll want access to bottom of the tank and you'll already have that if you're doing the MC.
