[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m sure everyone has seen the commercials for this stuff... a giant hole in a boat or bucket and the guy slaps a piece on as water pours out and is instantly sealed. Of course I was skeptical but figured I’d give it a try. There’s a lot of ways this tape can be useful but my first test was a leaky sink pipe. The tape is thick and cuts easily. All I had to do was cut the amount I wanted (it is VERY tacky, so beware) and wrapped a piece around where the pipe was leaking. It’s held on very good so far and have had no leaking since. The second project I used it for was for a hole on the side of my kayak. Again, cut the amount I needed and applied. It held at first but is started to come up on the edges from being wet. This product does better when it adheres to itself verses laying flat. Overall a great and useful product.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] at first i thought it wouldnt work but i used it on a hole our pool had and it worked amazingly cant wait to try it on other products. it gives you a good amount of roll to use it on multiple items so a great value!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this one month ago to have on hand around the house just in case. Yesterday a dropped a vase and cracked it. Water began to spill out of the vase and get all over my counters. Fortunately, I had flex tape ready to go! I cut off a couple of small pieces and placed them on the cracks. It began to seal the cracks immediately and has gotten stronger overnight. Incredible value for the price and I plan on getting more colors!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tested this item out on my broken water spicket that comes out of the back of my house. A worker recently broke off part of the top of it and I was having a hard time getting out the plastic piece in the top to fix it properly. So I thought that this might be able to seal up the top of the water Spicket. The water pressure that comes out in the top is very strong. So in order to seal it up it would have to have a really strong hold. I cut a small 3 inch piece of the tape and fixed it over the top of the hole. Then I started up the water after pressing down very tightly around the tape to hold it down. At first you can see that the tape was slightly expanding because of the pressure of the water. Then I did notice a small hole in the back where I had fasten the tape around. So I needed to get a second piece of tape to go around the back of the hose to keep it from leaking. Even with all the pressure of the water coming out the tape was able to hold it. I was very impressed that the tape was able to hold such a strong water pressure from exploding out of the Spicket. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is looking to fix a hole that has to do with water.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got the flex tape to see if it would fix a leak in my ceiling. I had friends tell me I needed to try it because it was great! They were right, its amazing. My landlord had tried nearly everything to fix the leak including putting new tar and adhesive on my roof. It didn't work. My husband taped the ceiling with this flex tape and it instantly stopped the leak. I am so grateful for this amazing product. I highly recommend this product!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I've been using this everywhere around my house to seal up little spots that have cracked and leaked. I around my window sill and it sealed so tightly that the little ants that used to sneak in my window ,can't get in anymore! When it rains I sometimes get some water coming in through an old back door. I put this around the area it usually comes in and no more water getting in!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Ok I admit I was skeptical about this tape. BUT IT REALLY WORKS!!!! I put outside to cover a crack I have on a window. Water drips in through the crack and its been raining a lot lately. I covered the crack and no more water! I also used it around a pipe in my bathroom that has a little crack in it. This tape really ism waterproof and seals so well!
