I tried it.  Purchased two cans.  Smells like roofing tar or asphalt.  Pretty bad stuff.  Worked for a bit until it got hard.

Thanks for the replies. I ended up using plasti dip to fix a $200 key fob, worked great so far.
Ive had pretty good luck with this stuff, sounds like the flex seal is not worth the $$

I used flex-seal to seal my gutter seems and the seems on a riveted boat.
So far it has worked great.
And the clear Flex-Seal, works great for preserving birds nests and tumble weeds.

I tried it on a crack in one of those dark gray plastic stock water tanks, 300 gallon, crack about 3 inch long. Did not work at all did not stick.

I use epoxy on my stock tanks with great results.  Just clean it really well with acetone first.  I did patch a tiny leak around the drain with Flex Seal and it has held so far for about a year.
