Flex Seal
Worst product I have ever used. The small leak I had got worse after I prepared the surface and use the Flex Seal product. Warning - this produce is a scam.

Was considering a purchase
I haven't purchased any but wanted to check reviews online before doing so, the interesting thing is the first few review sites I found were one's I never heard of and all the reviews were positive for the product, my point is check several review sites before making a determination, it was obvious to me that the first sites were paid or affiliates of flex seal.
Just my 2 cents and thanks for all that shared here. I won't be purchasing Flex Seal and based on their business practice I wouldn't buy it even if it worked.
I'm giving a neutral 3 stars since I didn't buy or try it.

Doesn't work :-(
Used it to seal a leak around a vent on my mobile home. Held for maybe 1 week of Seattle weather and the leak started again, only worse!
Don't waste your money.

more uses for Flexseal
Gotta love this stuff... Would you believe I am using it to spray the lower section of my indoor horse arena ocb board walls with Flexseal.. The sprinklers and moist sand ruin the wood but the flexseal will help maintain my new walls for many years to come.
I would be happy to send photos

LOVE FLEXSEAL!
I have used this for all sorts of applications and I just LOVE IT! I sealed a drain under a sink. Worked pretty decent. I sealed my gutters and a hole in a bucket, worked GREAT! What I found is the best way to use this to do a big hole is to put something like a strip of scotch tape or duct tape over the inside of the hole and then spray the outside with Flex Seal. Let dry, remove the tape. Works GREAT! I am currently sealing the roof of my motor home with it~! I will always have a can of this around the home for future uses!

This stuff flakes off like crazy!
I bought 4 cans of Flex Seal to seal my patio. The commercial states that it can do that and that it does not flake. I have LARGE black flakes all over my backyard now from using this product and my patio looks terrible. Now I have to scrape off the remainder of the stuff and start over. DO NOT BUY!

Don't go there
First off ... the five-star rating has NO negative options. In the case of Flex Seal, a minus 17,0003 is still too high. ALL of the negative reviews I've read here are true.
My Buy One get the second can free ended up as a three can order at just over $87.00 !!!
There was NO way to cancel the order (or modify it).
The site ONLY adds $$$ to already over-inflated co$t$.
And I was dumb enough to NOT persue financial options with my VISA carrier until it was too late to kill the payments (or reverse charge the company).
The only thing I can do is tell EVERYBODY who will listen to avoid this product and this company like the plague.
Bottom Line, word-of-mouth advertising is STILL the most effective form of advertising (good or bad).
DO NOT EVEN THINK that Flex Seal is a product you might "need."

Flex Seal does not work, It is all lies like most of product advertised in same manner of sensationalism
I bought fkex seal.
This Product claim is deceptive and does nothing of what they say "really"
After spending almost 100$ on their 4 jumbo bottles, I had to call someone who knows
They show you the door float. Well I bet you they used 1000 bottles of flex seal on it over days and days.
It is better to get a pre estimate because you need a whole truck of this product maybe to make a difference
DO NOT WASTE MONEY

Marketing Questionable
I agree with Paula's S & P. Don't EVEN get close to the submit page if changing your mind! I didn't order, got a confirmation email anyway, then was told by phone that the order probably wouldn't be shipped. When the can - and bill showed up - another phone call resulted in my keeping the can with the company's compliments - and advise not to proceed as far with the order next time as I had this time.

Buy Flex Seal Elsewhere
I found Flex Seal for sale online and in their stores at Rural King. $12.95 for 1 can, $11.95 each for 2 cans and $10.95 each for 3+ cans. Plus free shipping on orders over $25. I bought a can at the local store, have not tried it yet but plan to this weekend.

Flex Seal Review from Non-Affiliate Consumer
Well, I have just tried the product - so am on a wait and see basis regarding how the products actually works. However, for those pondering a purchase, their "Buy One, Get One Free" is a bit of a stretch. The processing fee for the 2nd can is $9.95. They then charge you a shipping fee of $9.95. The actual, total cost for the two cans you receive is a whopping $39.89! That's nearly $20 bucks per 10 oz can (the "Large" can) or $2 bucks per ounce! Plus the spray nozzles on the cans are really poor. The over spray must be about 2' in every direction. That little demo they do on the website spraying next to a white door frame - that's not going to happen, without a lot of masking! Finally, it acts a lot like rubberized automotive undercoating - I'm going to try that next. The undercoating comes in a larger can, is significantly less expensive, and can be purchased at nearly any store that has automotive spray paints etc. Flex seal at $2 bucks per oz?!!! Eeesh. It better work! Obviously they're not looking for repeat sales.

DO NOT ORDER THIS PRODUCT! All the negative comments about this company are true. They double your order without permission. You don't have the option to change the number of products you ordered. By the time you realize the charge is doubled, your order has already been submitted without pressing a "submit" option. Read on, all of these negative reviews are true.

DO NOT ORDER THIS PRODUCT. Eventhough you do not "SUBMIT" the order, if you X out of the website, the order is still processed. They called me to confirm my order. I said I didn't order anything. They said I would have to speak to customer service and they would transfer me. When they did, there was a recorded message that said "extension is unavailable - please try again later" and hung up. ??????? What to do now??? Better Business Bureau and cancel my credit card.....knowing there is the charge for this horrible company....

DO NOT ORDER ON-LINE FLEX SEAL. Everyone's story about Flex Seal is accurate to my experience. You get a double order and almost $80 is charged to your account. Immediate calls to customer service 1-800-307-6201 and they say they can't do anything as your account is in process. This was after claiming we had static on the line and hung up on me three times. So I called to say I was placing an order, then they talked to me. I called my credit card company, and yes, the credit card is in process. So when the account soon entered, I called back and then they said, they can't credit the balance because the order is already in shipping. However, the ad says takes 2-4 weeks. So they give me an offer to return the other two cans and they will credit my account after giving me an offer of $5 off then $10 off. I wonder also if all the favorable reviews you see on U-Tube are done by this company? My only hope is that my credit card company will pursue them. They recommended I contact their dispute department and said this company sounds like a rip off. Most definitely.

I really did not believe all of the negative posts about this company, but let me tell you they are all true. They double bill you for product, They ship twice what you ordered, They ship way after they tell you they shipped. Then they try and offer you a discount to keep what you did not order or tell you that you need to pay to ship it back. Worst of all within 48hrs, they were calling my number with a telemarketer trying to get me to sign up and order more of their products.This company should be sued for these practicies. Complete fraud. I would never purchase from them again. STAY AWAY. Absolute Losers.

Do not attempt to purchase this item!!! They doubled our order without our agreement and they signed us up for repeat orders which we were not even asked about. Do not try this product!! Now we have to go through our credit card company to stop all charges and they continue to charge us.

Flex Seal is a total rip-off; don't waste your hard-earned money on this crap. Don't be lured into buying this product watching the guy in commercial using the Flex Seal to attach a screen door to the bottom of a boat. Flex Seal Liquid Rubber Spray does not work and the ad is misleading. It does not fix leaking gutter, roof leakages, leaky pipes, or any other leakages - It sprays very thin and the layers peel off. It might just work (??) as a temporary solution for some minor leakages but this certainly not a permanent fix.
Not only the Flex Seal but the ordering process is a scam. You do not get chance to review the order button before buying the product. The shipping charges are outrageous. Returning the product is a big hassle and you still have to pay for one way shipping.

I had to report this company to the Better Business Bureau. They asked for credit card information at the start of the order. then you go through a series of products that they want you to order.
Once you click through that crap you have purchased the products!!! They don't let you know the shipping cost or taxes. They don't give you a chance to say that you confirm the order.
The customer service is horrible. I tried to call in to cancel the order and had to wait on the phone for over 25 minutes each time. Once I finally got through, they said that my order was just processed but not shipped. They said that they could not cancel the order but could add a free gift to it. i said that if you can add something to the order then you can cancel it. the customer service rep said that that was nit possible. So I reported them to the BBB.
