Flex Seal Liquid is best applied to surface temperatures from 32°F to 120°F (0°C to 48.9°C). Once fully cured, Flex Seal Liquid can withstand temperatures from -80°F to 350°F (-62.2°C to 176.7°C).
That means whether you’re using it in the summer sun or in colder conditions, this liquid rubber sealant maintains its integrity without cracking, peeling, or breaking down.
Flexpert Tip: It’s always best to apply Flex Seal Liquid on a clean, dry surface free of grease and oil. If applied during heavy rain, some of the product may wash away. Therefore, we recommend applying it 24 hours prior to any heavy rain, hail, or snowfall (if possible).
Coverage depends on the surface type, application method, and number of coats, but here’s a general idea of what you can expect:
The smoother and more porous the surface, the more efficiently Flex Seal Liquid spreads. Keep in mind that multiple coats may be needed for deeper cracks, textured materials, or added strength. It’s also important to allow 24 to 48 hours between coats for proper drying and curing.
Flexpert Tip: When using Flex Seal Liquid Clear, multiple thin coats help maintain a transparent finish while still forming a strong waterproof seal.
Whether you’re patching up a leak, protecting surfaces, or customizing your own waterproof barriers, Flex Seal Liquid gives you the control and durability you need. Its powerful waterproof formula, long-lasting temperature resistance, and solid coverage make it an incredibly effective sealant for your projects and repairs.
