Default Stop those water leaks today!

Just saw this today on tv and thought id let you guys with some water leaks know about it, its suppouse to "seal" and stop leaks using a liquid rubber such as undercoating...seems like its worth a shot!

I was actually really interested in this stuff. When I pull the interior to fix any rust in the floor, I was thinking about giving everything a good layer of this stuff to prevent further rust.

If you do try it let me know how good it seems to work.
Thanks

Thats what i plan on doing i "rhino lined" my interior but there are still some sneaky little water spots so for some added security i wanted to try this ive read it works well after applying a few coats

For those who want to try FLEX SEAL check out some local stores.

I actually saw the stuff for sale in a " Bed, Bath and Beyond Store " on one of their " AS SEEN ON TV " displays.

It was cheaper to buy it there than to order online, much cheaper.

Instead of spraying inside to stop leaks and trapping the water, try spraying
"suspected" leaking spots on the outside (against the firewall and such).
Better to keep it out than trapping it inside.

If you have rust, the only true way to eliminate it is to cut it out and put in new metal.
