Flex Seal, Turbo Poly Seal, Super Silicone Seal comparison and flexibility and strength test

I'd like to see how bergstrom did with out the fleece patch I bet gorilla would do the same with the fleece strip for a fraction of the cost

💯👍

Thanks for content

You will find with spray on products it is so thin in the can in order to make it through the orifice that multiple coats are required. Put one coat of Flex Seal on a sheet of glass and shine a light through it. You will be able to see the micro holes in the product which then requires multiple coats.

I'm a painter and use many coatings. Any product in a aerosol can has massive amounts of 'thinners' in it to allow it to spray. Half of what comes in a spray can evaporates into the atmosphere, so you're paying for something that you're not keeping. A brush or roll coating leaves a thicker amount of dry mils as a result.

Nice view.

Appreciate you taking the time thank you

Great viewing very interesting tests and results

The stuff with the cloth in it is what we call Poormans, fiberglass, but only with silicone

Single best video of all time endless nuance

This is a complete SCAM! I bought this crap 6 months ago and now I am removing all of this failed product! I tried to leave a review on the Bergstrom site and it said we will review for posting. This is exactly what I would expect form this Flim Flam artist. DO NOT GIVE THIS CLOWN A PENNY!

No BS product tests. Great video. Does what it promised.

Did you just open a can with a pair of scissors?

Great test. So nice of your young daughter to help you out.

How do each one of them hold up after a lot of heat .. on the rubber roof like all summer long. under extreme heat what does the best then?

I just used the Turbo Poly Seal to repair, several patches on a 13,000 SF metal roof. Worked great and was tested a few days later with a large rain storm. No leaks, saved me tens of thousands of dollars, over a re-roof. I hope to get another 5-10 years, before doing a re-roof.

Repeat the test of flex seal liquid and spray but use fleece like you did with turbo poly seal

You could pressure test it also and see which one holds ,maybe 30 psi.( Just a thought). Great video,thank you.

I wonder if the Flex seal would have been better if you included a piece of fleece like the other two.

Amazing test!

How about Sillco 'through the roof' sealant? Do you think it is a good option for using with fleece for 1/8" holes in a thin metal roof?

Thank you very much for your video see you next videos

Can you put the poly seal over the gorilla tape

I want to try it but I can not find in southern California , can you please help me where I can buy the Super Silicone Seal?

Or do it the old fashioned way with TAR. 🤭

Good video. I tried flex spray on leaking gutter seams on vinyl gutters...couldn't even stop a simply drip drip drip. Wish I had seen your video 1st.

Great testing,

This is not an accurate test, once the first hole is breached, that becomes the weak point and the water will always egress from there thus relieving the water pressure to test the other holes.

This isn't available in my country. What kind of alternatives should I look for that perform like turbo?

So how many trips have you had to the ER while DIY with tools? That opening a can with some gigantic scissors.. WTF man! Nothing as safe as working in flip flops though. I would suggest the safety of crocs ... at least your skin would have some barrier of protection.

I would like to see you add leak stopper in with it to see how it acts

Why no fleece on the otbers

May I ask what is the mesh that you are using with the turbo seal?

I would say to add the fabic to the flex seal and it would work better.

I get a lot of good information from your videos. Thank you.

Should of reinforce flex products like you did with silicone and urethane. Then did test

FYI - These are instructions from Flex Seal on how to properly apply the spray:
Step 3: Spray It

Shake your can of Flex Seal vigorously for about a minute. Then aim the nozzle at your surface and spray it in a sweeping motion from a distance of 8 to 12 inches. Take your time to focus on those holes and the larger surrounding area around them. Feather the edges. Let the first coat dry for 24 hours before applying the next coat. Allow 48 hours to fully cure.

Hi I love your videos..........I cannot find where to buy the turby poly seal. I have a 10 thousand sq foot roof to recoat and the seal is for the protusions.....where can I buy it? also is it good for the vent seems?.....thanks

Flex leak is a waste of money ! Tried the can and also the spray , guess what it still leaks! Over $75.00 a waste of money !

Thank you for doing this test with the different products and showing us how these sealants perform. I've been very curious about Flex Seal, but now I know there are even better paint on sealants. The Bergstrom products with the fleece definitely adds the durability of incorporating fiber filaments to the bond under the stress of flexing. There may also be situations that warrant spraying, like if the shape of the area is very irregular although it would take several or even many coats to build it up. I bet one could certainly get some woven fiberglass sheet and use it with the Flex Seal if they couldn't find or afford the Super Silicone. This is definitely making me think about how to tackle some leak repairs. *** I greatly appreciate you taking the time to make the videos and teaching us how to save money by doing easy repairs ourselves.

Buen video, Linda pareja 🫶🏼👍

I have been using flex tape and flex spray and i still have a leak.
Next step will be silicone with fleece.

Can you do a scratch test to see which one is harder or softer and also can you see which one hot glue would stick too the best or least.

You can see a hole in the spray when you were finished spraying.

at 2.3 lb per foot around 23psi

you should have used a fiber tape under as well to be a fair test

The first test was with negative water proofing not primary waterproofing and you should never rely on that to begin with….2nd test Try using the flex spray and liquid with the “fleece”as well to compare apples to apples. And for a true test do a long duration exposed to UV.
I do understand you are testing how normal consumers will try to use these products (and hope they don’t try and use the spray for repair of sanitary pipes💩!” Please educate the people of primary and secondary waterproofing of the exterior of a structure And a temp fix.

looks like gorilla tape or flex tape first, then flex spray. The white application worked best but needed to be sanded down. Those tape worked magic considering hothing much was done but a bandaid lol

Test is biased - the turbo poly has reinforcement membrane added.

I had 4 coats of flexes spray hold up on old copper pipes I didn’t even clean them before I sprayed. Under pressure it lasted 4 years I moved so don’t know Ayer that 3 plumbers cheapest estimate $700 1 can of flexseal-BAM

This test was testing two event 1. How well a product seal and insulate water. 2. You were test a product's ability to hold things together without separating. I have never heard flex seal claim to hold things together under tension. Either you put a fabric strip in the flex seal or leave out the fabric straps from the other two to get a real test. You should do this again or just Apologize to flex seal for the unfair test.
