I literally coated a massive subwoofer box in flex seal about 12 years ago. It was in the back of a jeep Cherokee. Stored my spare tire on top of it, as well as tire tools around it, etc. It got banged up. Normal wear and tear did not damage the flex seal. I did use an entire case of the stuff, but I was stoked with the results.

Chainsaw bucket holes is probably a bit much for Flexseal but it’s been a godsend for sealing some old decaying window sills and brickwork. Instead of spending too much time using a caulk gun or wood epoxy/bondo some wood hardener and Flexseal is so much faster and just as water proof.

Same with the paste: the thickness of a barrel is much greater than a plastic tub. So, in that case, there'd be more surface area in the hole itself to grab onto in either direction. That's why more was needed to basically make the fix itself thicker rather than less.

And basically any super glue (or rather Cyanoacrylate as super glue is a brand) does that 6000 pounds (I've seen it). It's actually quite insane stuff because its not even suppose to work like that. It just is critical that the object is lifted straight up, and not in any angle. And I don't think the adhesive part is really the trick there. If you put say oil drop between two flat surfaces it becomes really hard to pull them apart. Would not do 6000 pounds by any means, but point is that it's not the glue doing all the work. Something like surface tension must be in play there. Or some internal pressure thing. Not sure what is happening but it is weird.
@PikkaBird
@PikkaBird 2 ай бұрын
I think they did try to machine it flat at least to some degree. When Sam's showing the tubing it's just off the saw but when you see the glue going on it's got a flat surface and machining marks. I think the problem is that since it's hollow it's going to deform when a considerable amount of weight is put on the hook. Whenever either side deforms just a little bit any machined flatness is history.

My husband ended up using the white liquid to paint the our small bathroom (one where you can sit on the toilet and lay your head on the cool porcelain sink at the same time after a night of heavy alcohol consumption). The bottom half of the walls are tiled, but the top part was just plain white paint. I converted the claw foot tub into a tub/shower. The problem I had with that was the slope in the ceiling didn’t allow for a traditional curtain that was tall enough for my youngest kid or me, so the shower head is a good 6” over the curtain. In comes my hubs, who MacGyvers his way through life, with the flex seal paint (liquid), which has worked amazingly at keeping the steam & sprays of water from peeling the paint and/or causing mold, especially in such a confine 5’x6’ area.

Superglue if applied properly is immensely strong. Using the machined parts for the superglue demonstration absolutely does make a difference. The flatter and better matched the surfaces being glued together are, the less the stress will concentrate in any one area which would cause the glue joint to peel away. Using hollow tubing doesn't help, because the hollow section would have some flex to it at those weights, which could cause the glue to peel at the edges.

I patched the hole on both sides with clear flex tape and then sprayed around the tape on the pool's outside with flex seal (it was dripping around the tape a bit). It took a minute to fully set up, but it worked and held like that for several years until we got rid of the pool.

But for a flexible container like that, flex tape would be a more suitable solution.

I think the flex paste worked on the wooden barrel because it was wooden, which is to say it was thick and unflexing. When you put it on your plastic container, the walls flexed, which meant a lot of the pate was pushed through, but it also makes the surface area of the hole a lot bigger. The wood would provide an unflexing surface, which makes it easier to seal.

The flex seal spray can works better if you put a piece of paper or something inside the 'lots of damage' or knife/chainsaw holes. The flex spray builds up both in and on the paper, then dries Inside the fibers of the paper. You need less of the product to complete the seal, the layers can be thinner so it dries faster, and it typically works better overall. You still spray the top and bottom of the paper, as it's supposed to stay there and provide support while the flex spray keeps everything where it should be. Sort of like putting steel bracing strips inside aluminium wings to build a plane. Alternatively, you can use a piece of plastic; like from a ziplock bag. Though, I don't think it works as well even though it's still a viable option.

I had a project where JB weld failed and that flex glue took care of it no problem. That glue is no joke.

This was one of the most entertaining videos I've seen on KZbin in a while. Thanks for the laugh. Also... I've used some of the FelxSeal products IRL. They're pricey but they work.

Yeah, I've held flashing tape and the flex tape side by side tested, and they are exactly the same.

I want to fill cracks under baseboards to prevent insects entering apartment. Is the flexshot any different than the flex caulk which is more expensive?

Bought a 24 ft camper for $700 that had water damage to one of the rear corners. I put the 10" wide tape on the corner that separated and it's been a year with intense rain and snow and I have not had to do a single thing with it since I slapped it on. Instead of caulking everything on the roof I used the flex seal spray. Hpor I get the same results as the tape!

I've used the paste, glue, caulk, spray can, and liquid while repairing my travel trailer. The stuff works good.

I have used superglue to bond 2 pieces of aluminum together. I believe both parts were cleaned and faced. I broke a 3/4 inch endmill off when the aluminum plugged the flutes because it was dull. the 2 pieces were still bonded together though.

for the spray flex seal, on a big hole, I used a piece of a metal screen (screen door screen) as the base to spray the seal on. Took a lot less spray

the weight of the wood bent your box tube things. you can lift way more if you have gluing surfaces that stay straight. that's why the used machined pieces.

I put clear spray on flex seal on some end grain coasters a few years back. I then did what I always did with coasters. I submerged them in mineral oil, just like my cutting boards. The mineral oil dissolved the flex seal.

I can vouch for the Flex Seal spray. Fixed some leaky pipes on a concrete tub. But it does take multiple coats which take 24 hours to dry between coats.

While i normally like your videos anyway because you're highly entertaining, I'm liking this one specifically for the upcoming cannon purchase. You need to get Phil on for the next one though and get the man, the myth, the legend to come up with some more insane ways to use his products.

I'm not a certified Plumber so I can't do plumbing in offices but there was a tiny pinhole leak in a water heater line above the ceiling at a new office. I grabbed some flex tape, taped over the hole. It held for 2 weeks while the plumber was dragging butt replacing 12 inch's of copper pipe. Plumber who did it said it was a neat trick for a pin hole leak.

To remove adhesive vinyl from a hard surface, simply heat the vinyl with a heat gun/hair dryer, and it will be removed easily. No chemicals required.
