[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy to use and apply. I was happy with the hold and the grip. I used it on somebuckets that had cracked and it held really well. It also helped to keep it from leaking. I would definitely recommend. The roll contained quite a bit so it's a good deal for the price.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I used this to patch the space between my tub and the vinyl. It worked. As a patch it seems like it would stick till the renovation. I wanted to pause any degredation of the wood flooring. It worked. It's clear too so that makes the look similar to nothing at all.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape is an absolute beast in the tape world! It holds like nothing else I've used. With that said though, don't expect to put it under water and seal a hole like they do in the advertisements. It works ok on wet surfaces, but works extremely well on a clean dry surface.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had head a lot about Flex Tape and I decided to try it out for myself. I had a 5gallon bucket that use to store water in next to our grill. It had cracked across the bottom and rather than throwing it out, I applied Flex Tape on both the inside and the outside (making sure that the area was clear of dirt). It sealed perfectly without leaking even after several days. I found it also works great on patching PVC pipes and cracks in my rain gutters.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried Flex Tape in a few different applications and found it to be a good, but not great solution to various leakage scenarios. It has a very strong adhesive which will not allow repositioning or separation if it touches itself. So, think ahead and don't remove the backing film until you are 100% certain of your placement. It worked well for a temporary EPDM roof repair and a gutter repair but failed at stoping a leaking pipe.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape really does work as advertised. I was skeptical at first, but then it sealed by large leaking metal pipe in the garden, i was absolutely convinced. What an incredible innovative product. A must have for any garage.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This tape is not great. Very sticky, hard to remove. Tested on a leaky hose. Did not keep it from leaking. I can't speak for pipes but if it didn't work on my hose, doubt it would work on pipes. I did prep area.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This product is easy to store and easy to use. Unlike some tar tape products that I’ve used before, this one doesn’t have the strong chemical tar smell, which is awesome! It’s very sticky and adheres well. It’s very important that the product you’re adhering it to, is 100% clean! Otherwise, it will have difficulty adhering! Some products I’ve used have a disposable paper liner that allows you to unroll the product without it sticking. Unfortunately, this doesn’t have that, but it would make things easier if it did. Overall, I would still recommend it though!
