For your next project mix pigment in Part 2 first. Don't use a power mixer as that reduces your working time tremendously. Use short nap roller. 2 coats maximum. Pour out whole container of mixed product to spread it out as fast as possible, the more you leave in the container by volume the faster it will get hot and start to kick. Never mix more then you can apply within 10 to 15 minutes.

@@Auntyweehaa great so far. Had it flipped over during the winter, I did notice that one area that the sun was beaming down on had chipped. I figure it was because of a little dirt so cleaned it, and reapplied. Hoping to get it out next month.

The corrosion pitting from the trailer bunks is usually caused by pressure treated boards. The chemicals react with the alum. Only the regular boards should be used.

Awesome video. I'm fixing to do a 16ft smoker craft in this stuff. Hope it goes well. Thank you for this video

Ok, I bought this for my 12' Jon boat. I mixed my colorant in part 2 first then added part1and mixed. Applied with roller and a plastic spreader. 2 coats and it came out great. I really appreciate your videos. My old boat looks new again. And no leaks

Great job. if you would like to make the job go faster steel wire it , that works great. and remove all the stuff off the boat first, and mix the color in the pint and mix it up first it, then add the harder and finish mixing it. that will give you a little more time to work with.

Could you give us an update? Show the bottom and any gouges from hitting things or grounding.

Sorry I sold the boat,

Good information to know

We use Steel Flex on our Airboat’s also a product called Frog Spit ( lol ) this stuff is great and hard as a rock, DO NOT USE A MIXER.

Thanks for the video as I'm about to do a 16/48 lowe aluminum boat. I want to do the entire outside of the boat. Going to have a buddy of mine sand blast it first. The thing is got to remind who ever does the sand blasting they need to remember you can NOT blast aluminum to hard or you will loose hull thickness as aluminum is very soft lol.

nice video men thank you men

Nice bro

Would this product be good to paint on a fiberglass water trough for a water fall ?

Nice job

Hey man do you remember what pigment color this was? Looks like a forest green almost. I'm looking to order some but I want more of an Olive Drab color..

How did it turn out? Are you please? Any loose rivets or leaks

So how did it turn out/did you need another coating?

Looks great, I have a 14 foot by 36. Do you think 3 pints will be enough for mine? Is the stuff expensive?

Sorry, its has been great I saw it a month ago and zero chipping, zero leaks

Before you put that on. Did you have any cracks were rivets are. I bought a Bass pro 15ft tracker jon boat in 2010 2012 plus I'm running a 15hp mercury 4stroke.i used boat to install boat lifts all over lakes in oklahoma so your talking about putting around. Well this year I'm not installing lifts.in tje years ive owned this boat ive put flex seal paint bottom & inside jb weld on a crack it held for a little bit. Now I'm scraping the flex off the bottom cause it's flaking away ive noticed around rivets thier is cracks oh ya also a weld in the seam has a big --- crack about 8 10inches long. I guess bass pro is cheap on boats but they are exspinsive.im not sure how all this has happend to this boat from pushing lifts. I'm talking trolling speed.

So I just bought a jon boat we are currently stripping it down to paint it but I we did discover some leaking rivets would I be fine just covering them all with this to stop the leaking?? Also do I still have to Primer over the thing or should just paint over it?

Blake Sanders I just watched this today. I see you replied to Tim Commerford’s question about being out on the water a year ago. May we please have an update as to the status of your boat with a video of it on the water. In this video, you said something like you couldn’t believe someone hasn’t done a video like the one you were doing. Every video I watch about fixing Jon boats/aluminum boats, no one ever shows the boat out on the water to prove their handy work is what they claim it to be. I’m not hating. I’d just like to see if your method really works before I go ahead with your informative video. It was a great video

whats wrong with a paint brush?

Can I. Add a layer of poly eurethane over the flex seal? Or is it unnecessary?

It is a long tested bottom coating epoxy paint. It is used for marine applications. It comes with a choice of pigments to add color. The cost per gallon is around $140 including four oz pigment. About the same price as any marine epoxy paint.
