Its business flex seal is a great product for smaller projects but for your bigger project i would recommend leak seal flexible rubber. That is much cheaper in bulk and flex seal you have to shake extremely well before each use just like spray paint only flex seal is much thicker than spray pain so you will have a hell of a time getting it to actually work full potential but i do. I get probably 2 and a half minutes per can of use. Its not a research project there weren't years of research put into it its just a simple invention somebody just said hey this liquid rubber, why dont we stuff it in a can and call it flex seal. but anyway if you think its too expensive for what it is then just buy from a cheaper company keep in mind always look around for all alternatives before jumping on a buy can be a brainwashing bitch like advertising reaches so many more people than no advertising, i mean look at apple they suck and rip off everyone else but most people buy apple products anyway. Why is that because they advertise as a family friendly great innovative company HAHa, its just how business works you know. :/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15982002371698508483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458591973215653334.post-62528170435094483312017-04-18T04:49:46.025-07:002017-04-18T04:49:46.025-07:00I bought a gallon of flex seal at the hardware sto...I bought a gallon of flex seal at the hardware store because I had a leaky broken basement Wall. It covered it nicely and I bought the white so it's brighter. It covered the whole Wall and then some. Now the wall has stopped leaking and stopped from chips falling out of the concrete, and it was only 100.00 for the gallon. I was happy. I want to do my whole basement with this.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11814846229125646168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458591973215653334.post-16699240502995421392016-08-20T03:38:00.674-07:002016-08-20T03:38:00.674-07:00Toilet tanks can be bought seperate & are not ...Toilet tanks can be bought seperate & are not overly expensive, when is all said & done, if it doesn't work you are out double, the cost of sealant & a new tank. Tanks are porcelain, I'd check into expoxy for porcelain. Far cheaper, especially if it doesn't hold. Some checking could net u a new tank for only a few bucks more than what you'll shell out for enough of this stuff to do the fix. Smart shopping has gotten me whole toilet sets for under 60.

It will be cheaper and you don't pay shipping. <br /><br />You say it works but is a rip off? <br /><br />The reason why there is not allot in the can is if they filled it to the top then it wouldn't work. You need air in the can. They now sell it in 14 oz cans. <br /><br />I do agree however that you do need use two coats instead of one. They shouldn't advertise it like that. <br />Anyone time u see an infomercial With products like this; take it with a grain of salt. <br /><br />DanaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6458591973215653334.post-63140265315545174492013-03-12T07:00:33.563-07:002013-03-12T07:00:33.563-07:00If you look at the early boat commercial there was...If you look at the early boat commercial there was a screen door on the top AND bottom of the boat.

You can find similar products described as that in any automotive supply store. If you're still leery because it doesn't sound like the same thing, check any hardware store for rubber leak sealers. No shipping cost, lower price, and probably larger quantities and much better prices and values.

Actually, virtually everything on an infomercial can be purchased more cheaply locally. If you stop the picture and read each frame, they meet the legal requirements but tough poopies if you have a problem. I always but this stuff from a store that will accept returns. I really appreciate the info - how about a chorus of yeas or nays so I can tell if I am reading this stuff correctly.

The product works well but if anyone can get more than a square foot from a can please tell me how. My cans felt like they were less than half full and when I called the advertised number I was told that it is normal for the can to feel light as the sealant expands as it comes out and the coverage averages out to 16oz of product. I countered with shouldn't I have gotten 16oz as advertised. I was told that I didn't understand marketing. Well all who may read this understand, we may not know marketing but we know deceptive advertising and lowlife companies.
