Flex Seal -Unbiased Product Review

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

I've never used Flex Seal before but I've seen it on TV and they make some pretty bold claims about their product. Today an ordinary man with modest DIY skills attempts to repair a water table using Flex Seal. The question: Does this product actually work in real life?

    I had a tire on my truck that had a big chunk of rubber that had come out. It was on the edge and the wires were showing. I had no spare tire and I was outta town. All I could find being way out where I was at was a tub of flex seal it was all most gone. I had just the right amount to feel the whole up. I put it in and I never did anything else to it. It's been now over. 2 years and it's still holding. Know one can believe it. All my friends are talking about it. I will always keep a tub in all my vehicles this would make a real good commercial better than a chicken one in the boat

    I have a bathtub and a very stout 13 year old.While in the tub she shoved herself with her heels and it caused a big hole in the bottom end of the tub. I used flex paste to repair the hole. It has never leaked and has held up so far as it was almost 2 years ago. I have also used it on a refridge after it was badly dent. I repaired the dent with this product. One of those textured finger print resistant ones. I dabbed a plastic bag over this product to texture it. Almost disappeared. This product will dry out quickly in the jar.

    Men flex seal is great. About a month ago I got a hole in my radiator. Didn't feel like buying a new one cuz they're like $200. Got me a $15 can of flex seal coated that thing like 13 times. Let it dry for 48 hours. Haven't had a leak since you're talking four or 500 lb of pressure in that radiator. So yeah stuff works pretty good

    You empower me to buy the flexseal spray, I’m trying to fix a Rubbermaid tank, I hope it’s strong enough to hold the heavy water, but I’ll double coated or triple coated if I need to, also, I only needed to do a few sections, so hopefully my bottle will go a lot further thanks for this video. Glad I didn’t get the paste or paint or whatever. I’ll subscribe just for you man.

    Question: I need to use Flex Seal spray on a rooftop tempered glass dome. Given how close the glass is to the roof, I have to tilt the flex seal spray can almost 90 so the spray nozzle is low enough to get the sealant where it needs to go. But then the flow of sealant stops because of the tilt. Anyone know of a solution? Is there a long straw attachment (like a WD-40 can) that could help?

    It's pricey, the spray version is very thin, the stuff in a tub must all be used. It doesn't store without hardening. If you use a small amount you may just as well throw away the rest since it hardens in the tub after first use. Would I but this again?.. No

    I purchased Flex Seal paste in a quart size plastic container, $29 + ST. Problem was to seal leaks about 1/4" around the edge of my deck above my kitchen nook. My experience: when weather is around 40 degrees it does not stick well especially to aluminum flashing. I had to wear rubber gloves and with my finger press hard to have stick. I found that it had a tendency to roll over itself and not stick. Also, it is messy, have a lot of acetone handy to clean your tools, hand, clothing, etc. Does it work? We have had a two down pours and I need to get a few more to see how well it does. My take: if your need can be served with roof tar, it is a lot cheaper and easier to work with than this stuff and in my case, it would have worked just as well. The ad shows applying under water conditions (the basement window shot), I am very skeptical of that given how poorly it was adhering to cold moist aluminum flashing and lumber.

    If its an attic roof you have to put it on the outside of the roof. Common sense tells you that if you have a hole in your roof and wood is porous that water is going to find its way through the same hole since you didn't repair it from the outside. That goes for any sealant. Roof tar, Silicone, chaulk etc.
