Flex Tape8 in x 5 ft, Clear, Original Thick Flexible Rubberized Waterproof Tape - Seal and Patch Leaks, Works Underwater, Indoor Outdoor Projects - Home RV Roof Plumbing and Pool Repairs

It is very sticky. It seems strong. It is flexible and seems to stay that way. I used it to "repair" the seat of an office chair where the fake leather was falling apart. I tried to use three strips of 8" tape to basically cover the whole seat. I wasn't thinking that the edges of the tape will stick to your legs, so now I cover the seat with a shirt which is the same thing I was doing before the "repair". It didn't turn out great but I don't really blame the tape. I knew it was a longshot. Guess I should have put my money toward a new chair. I could see where this tape could be useful for some other repair if you need a great big piece of flexible tape that is really sticky. Maybe repairing a swimming pool or sweeper hose or maybe even a garden hose.

Bought this for a patch and strength job on a camper roof after 3 years it’s still holding front free from water leaks ! I let it bake in the sun after I was done and have had no problems the durability size and stickiness is amazing even slapped a piece on the haul of my wave runner and it’s held up substantially great product

This stuff is great...... except if trying to use for a water leak. I had a leak in my aquarium and tried using this stuff to fix it, it did not stop the water leak as i thought it was advertised to do so (even stick underwater) yeah no, probably should have drained my tank first, dried the cracked area and then applied this tape. It is very sticky however but don't know of a reason to use this instead of duck tape.

I love flex tape. Whether it’s the type or the spray on, it’s all great. The tape is thick & it’s made out of a really good quality material. It does not peel up. I used it on an upper portion of our canoe so it’s not completely submerged in the water but does see an occasional wave as we’re paddling down the river and we’ve had no issues with it leaking. It’s a great product, it’s a good price and I’d definitely recommend it

Meh. It's kind of hard to work with and didn't live up to expectations. The glue is very tacky, which I was initially pleased with, since I planned to use this to seal a crack in the pipe that runs to our garden spigot until my landlord could get a plumber out to fix this (the garden spigot isn't exactly a priority for him, so this wasn't going to be done soon). This stuff didn't work at all the first time, which I thought was just an application issue on my part, so I tried again... then again... Then I went to the hardware store like I should have the first time.For the first attempt, I cleaned the pipe thoroughly and it was completely dry. I cut off enough to wrap around the pipe, covering the small <1/4" split with the entire width of the tape and wrapped about 3" of tape around the pipe to securely hold it. I wrapped it tightly and smoothed out any air bubbles as I went to ensure the tape was making good contact on the pipe for it's full length. The moment the water turned on, it started spraying out of the ends where the tape met the starting point.I tried doing it a second time, this time drying the pipe again, new piece of tape about the same length, but this time I used a screw driver to use as a kind of bone tool to press the tape together at that first seam, thinking the tacky glue just needed to make contact and seal the little spot where the tape met itself. I also smoothed out air bubbles as I wrapped it. Still no luck.Third time, I took off the tape from before, cut only enough to warp around the pipe, so the ends didn't touch each other. Oddly enough, this worked... for a couple of hours of use. I had been turning the water valve on/off as I needed the hose, so the tape wasn't under constant pressure, thinking I could prolong it's use, but it lasted about 3 hours before a water bubble formed under the tape. Just like a balloon, once it started inflating, it continued until the bubble reached the edge of the tape and it was done for.If you need this for plumbing, I'd recommend against it. Just go to the hardware store and buy a pipe repair clamp and be done with it. The repair clamp was about $11 and has been holding like a CHAMP for 2 weeks now, this was $13 and seems like it doesn't meet even their own claims.Also note the description says the bond is permanent after 24 hours and cannot be removed... That's not true. It's as easy to remove after 2 days as it was after 2 hours.And if you have trouble getting the adhesive off of your scissors or knife, just use Goo Gone and it'll come right off. The adhesive oddly enough sticks to EVERYTHING you don't want it to stick to and scissors WILL get gunky after the first cut. Goo Gone will save your tools from this mistake of a purchase.

This product was recommended to me when I was looking for a vinyl repair kit for my above ground pool. I placed a large piece on each side of the hole and it did not do the trick. I took it off and tried again with new tape and it still didn’t work. The wet piece I removed didn’t feel nearly as sticky after getting wet. Not the right stuff for my job. The shipping was lightning fast and arrived overnight! Great shipping but expensive and didn’t work.

nice and widesuper adhesive

This tape is fantastic, I used it to repair a rip on a vinyl gym mat and it stuck really well. Tried 12 inch wide duct tape before this stuff and it easily peeled off.Very sticky and the surface is a tough rubber so should hold up a long time!
