Good luck on the base replacement. Selective demolition of the old base allows pins to be heated and removed one by one. Moving those leads is to be avoided, once carefully straightened.
I have done one by soldering extensions onto all 12 leads, that allows them to be guided into the CRT base's pins a whole lot easier. Again with less moving of leads, better visibility to guide them in.
Bob Anderson is an expert on such materials and recommended the silicone windshield repair goo. It is not hard when it sets, but allows very little movement.
