I used Flex Seal on my rain gutters before the Rubber Flex was on the market. I had good luck with the Flex seal. After two years my gutters did not leak.
Hey Jeff after watching your video today, I decided to play along and give this comment. I brought a can of rubber flex from lowes in Lithonia, GA last month to fill a couple of holes left by the large screws from Direct TV Disk I removed from the garage roof, July, 2020. I knew that i would probably have to do several passes before it seal to my satisfaction. I was right with rain looming in the horizon I wanted to see how this product. I was impress, no leaks inside the garage. I did the pipes inside also because I notice a few drops of rain. After spraying a layer or two around the joints, no leaks. I brought 2 more cans just in case. The saying is, it's better to have and not need, than to need and not have. The cost was about $9.00 a can minus my vet discounts. By the way I like your videos, Keep up the good work, Take care and mask and glove up to be safe. RE Morgan Decatur, GA
WOW...this is a true testament to the product. Thanks for sharing your story and more importantly thanks to your service for our country! Have a great day and stay safe.
@@Jeffreviews4u Thank you so very much, Jeff. Do you do any videos on multi-meters on how to read continuity for and on small appliances? Take care yourself. RE Morgan Decatur, GA
Excellent comparison. I've used the flex seal on a swimming pool and it did fine. Nice to see both products in competition with one another. Have a great day.
Great review as always. Thank you. I would like to make one suggestion. You are close to making 100 videos...89 specifically I think...but your total subscribers is less than 4,000. I would like to see you market yourself more. Your videos are too great to only be seen by a few thousand people. Keep up the great work. Have a blessed day 💕

I Use a lot of Flex Seal. Stopped many leaks IN wet conditions as well. Using from the can or spray the black works better than White or Clear. For a lasting seal it is still best to clean and dry the surface. I’ve never had a Flex Seal spray can clog. For quart and gallons they should sell these in a pour style container like a bleach container. Once the can is opened it is almost impossible to reseal the can enough to save unused product.
Flex Seal tape works even better when surfaces are free of debris, oils and other contaminates. Also I use a blow dryer just to warm up the tape and lock it all in place. You don’t have to do it but it gives me piece of mind and ensures tight grip.
As with most spray cans containing anything with adhesive qualities (including paint), you should ALWAYS clean the nozzle before alternate applications to ensure an even spray. 🤔💭 *Hold upside down & spray until no product comes out, then clean the nozzle
Spray is not going to work as well as dipping because of the pressure used in the spray can. The problem is with your choice of product. Use the thicker product.
Hey Jeff, thanks for your review. I'm not sure if i would cut the bottom out of my boat and trust either one as the commercial suggests. I did use the flex seal and I believe another type that was very similar made by krylon. Part of my roof around the chimney started leaking, they seemed to do the trick until I was able to get a new roof on my house.
There is no way I would trust this to be the bottom of my boat. That being said the Flex Spray crew has a lot bigger budget than I do - ha. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
As with any aerosol application multiple thin coats works much better and dries faster, heavy spraying does not work or dry well. Try painting something with a spray can and see how a heavy application goes lol. Why would you spray the knives horizontally? spraying them length ways would make much more sense lol
on the strainer you were maybe holding the can too close? the pressure in the can was pushing through the mesh? holding it back away a bit more would let the spray slow down before hitting the strainer......idk for sure unless i tried but just a theory.
Definitely appreciate ur experiment bc I was about to use Flex Seal on my old home gutters but I am so not impressed. Their advertising does not match the performance. What does work on gutter leaks?
Where is the leak? They sell gutter sealers and pastes. If you like the flex products they have flex Paste and a liquid rubber in a gallon can. Both should seal pretty well. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Jeff...as I appreciate the reviews, there are a whole lot of products designed to seal and waterproof. This test only reveals which works better that day. How effective would these products remain over a period of time outdoors? It's common knowledge that UV light exposure over a period of time is brutal.
Stopping by to show ya some support and love 💕 my friend! A big thumbs up from me 👍🏻 this was awesome I remember seeing the commercial for this product and I always wondered if it worked !
Why the hell did you use cardboard boxes you should just got a plastic bowl and poke some holes in it and then reseal it. I had some shingles blow off my roof I used rubber flex and it worked great.
I work on metal roofs and we have tested both products do not work very well at all. After using this type of products , no other products well not stick. We had to cut out the area and patch it over with new panels. The rubber tape are ok for temporary repairs until you can make permanent repairs.
Jeff Reviews4u yes we have use it. It dose work good and last for about 4 years in the Desert southwest and last for around 6 years in Midwest that’s when you’re going to start seeing rusting around it from water accumulating in snow accumulating underneath the edges. So it is always a good plan to repair the area will a permanent repair. We have found Henries tropical sealant 100% silicone works better and sticks better. There is a paste and a roll-on version. Not saying that it will fell on a Metal roof and will not have rust issues after 5 or 6 years . It dose work better on mostly every else great 👍. The flux past works good don’t take me wrong but when using in a gutter it not in no way a permanent repair. As the Henries can be as it has the best flux it the surface but beware the Henries is expensive. For a gal. It will run around $75 dollars. I have not seen it smaller the that but I have not looked it up before.
I used both trying to reseal my rv roof. Flex seal is horrible. I used both the tape and the spray. It did nothing. Roof still leaked. Rubber flex is AWESOME!!! rubber flex tape stopped all leaks on my roof of my rv.
For an RV roof you're going to want a thicker product. Tape and spray won't hold up. There is RV roof seals out there but if you're looking for an ASOT product try flex Paste. It's much thicker than the spray and tape. I recently did a review on it. Check it out here: th-cam.com/video/BCfcvfhlzBM/w-d-xo.html

Glad to hear it worked on your pool. Thanks for stopping by and commenting. Have a great day!
I never used the spray flexseal but I did use the flexseal tape on a small leak and it worked perfectly. It didn't leak at all again.
The tape is pretty good stuff. Thanks for sharing your experience. Have a great day.
You should use the same type of box for this test
That would have made the test more scientific - I appreciate the feedback. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

Sometimes it's all about the psychological impact. If we feel it's better then it is. I agree 100% thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Jeff reviews4u Let me also add I’m not using the blow dryer near water. TH-cam makes me feel the need to highlight lol.

I want to try this on my windows. Thank you for posting this. I may try the Lowes version.
I was impressed with the Lowes brand too. Should be good to seal the side of windows. Let me know how it works. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
I love Flex Seal
I used it to make my water pond and to fix some Terra cotta planters and it has worked for me. I wouldn't use anything else
I like that they have new colors. Possibilities are endless. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Man I love your content and your attitude please continue

I was gonna go to Lowe's and get FlexS. But what i saw, i plan on getting an off brand instead. Thanks
Let me know how it works for you. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
have not used either.I've used rubber dip and it works great.
Thanks for sharing!
i have use flex seal to block cracks in my wall and works great and flex glue is phenomenal. though i do prefer clear flex seal.
Cool, thanks for sharing your experience with the flex products. Have a great day and stay safe.
Hey Jeff, thanks for your review. I'm not sure if i would cut the bottom out of my boat and trust either one as the commercial suggests.

There is no way I would trust this to be the bottom of my boat. That being said the Flex Spray crew has a lot bigger budget than I do - ha. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
You sprayed the FlexSeal too close -- should have been 8-10" according to what you originally said
As with any aerosol application multiple thin coats works much better and dries faster, heavy spraying does not work or dry well. Try painting something with a spray can and see how a heavy application goes lol. Why would you spray the knives horizontally? spraying them length ways would make much more sense lol

im liking your channel btw. i always stop and look at the as seen on tv sections,
I love the ASOT section...sadly I want to buy them all...lol.
@@Jeffreviews4u lol same here... Just to try them lol. Great channel and good job man!
good vid; like your style and presentation; Im surprised not more viewers; thanks Jeff
Thanks for the kind words...one day at a time my friend.
well I'm actually using the Flex Seal the black one on a PVC leak and I'm hoping that it works it's the part in the toilet drainer
I'd wrap that in flex tape too - haha. No one wants that to leak LOL. Let me know how it works.
Rubber flexx dries so much faster which could be handy in an emergency for multiple coats. Good review/comparison as usual
Thanks Jeff
I ended up liking the rubber flexx a lot better. Drying faster is really important in an emergency. Thanks for taking the time to comment.
Nice sharing
Glad you liked it. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Maybe coating Both side of the box can make a difference on the seal
Great minds think alike! I did that in this video: th-cam.com/video/mpY9HgOlOuc/w-d-xo.html let me know what you think.
Can rubber flexx be used on exterior concrete foundation cracks?
Definitely appreciate ur experiment bc I was about to use Flex Seal on my old home gutters but I am so not impressed. Their advertising does not match the performance. What does work on gutter leaks?
Where is the leak? They sell gutter sealers and pastes. If you like the flex products they have flex Paste and a liquid rubber in a gallon can. Both should seal pretty well. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
You should get the paste and not the spray
Do you think it would work on concrete bird baths? I have a crack in mine and it leaks.
Like the show!!! Im going with the rubber flex!!!
Very cool! Thanks for taking the time to comment 🙂 👍

You are absolutely right about UV breaking down the seal over time. Repeated application is necessary. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
YOUR SUPPOSED TO HOLD BOTH 18 INCHES AWAY OF WHATEVER YOU TRYING TO SPRAY OTHERWISE IT WELL BLOW THROUGH IT!!!
...and boy did it blow right through. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
was the knife hot from baking in the sun?
Didn't feel too hot. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.

Liquid rubber in a pan - who knew! Pretty cool stuff. Thanks for checking it out. Have a great day.
I want to repair a leaky plastic pipe from the out side theire no demostrations for this .
I used flex seal on a humidifier on my furnace, it sealed but the heat melted the seal, flex seal don't work on high heat
Use a plastic strainer and it will work better for that test. Take care.
Thanks for the tip! Have a great day and stay safe.
@@Jeffreviews4u Thanks, take care.
I believe both products are good
I agree. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
What about drywall with flex paste or seal?
I wouldn't put either on drywall...the rubbery texture doesn't sand well. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
Very informative vlog and review. Have a great weekend. 💕❤️🌹📣💖💯

My man, dollar general flexible sealer 2.50 a can gods gift to jerry riggers tweakers jacks of all trades everywhere exact same as flex seal
Your boxes were not equal boxes were different I could see light through the small box edge inside
That is true. They were not exact. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
The white and black Rubber flex are not the same. The black Rubber Flex is thicker.
They seemed the same to me. I did notice the white one clumping up more as it sprayed. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
@@Jeffreviews4u I later noticed that my white can was Flex Seal instead of Rubber Flex like my black cans.
thanks jeff ❤
Absolutely Mary. Thanks again for your support.
I so wanted to make a boat using Flex Seal. 😢
Me too...my budget isn't quite there yet.
The flexseal seemed to work pretty good on a hole in my roof.
Thanks for sharing your user experience. It is pretty thick stuff. Thanks for stopping by and commenting.
The boxes... Because cardboard? Please try wooden or mental/tin boxes see the difference?
Cardboard is the weakest...it worked ok on them...should work better on wood or other materials.
Why the hell did you use cardboard boxes you should just got a plastic bowl and poke some holes in it and then reseal it. I had some shingles blow off my roof I used rubber flex and it worked great.
Why indeed! Lol. Thanks for sharing your experience. 👍
