Watch this video before you buy any Flex product! We bought some tools to see if melting plastic could solve the super tough rain barrel test. We also provide an update on how Flex Seal, Paste, Glue, and Gorilla Waterproof Patch all Failed (and what the products look like in place 1-3 years later). This is an honest review, I paid for everything with my own money.
Here are the Tools and Materials used or mentioned in this video:
Weller Woodburning Kit: amzn.to/3CNCeRf
Plastic Welding Kit: amzn.to/3IN7fZ2
Stainless Steel Fine Mesh: amzn.to/3XvRg5T
Metal Screen Repair Kit: amzn.to/3vZUnHw
Flex Paste: amzn.to/3W5Y0X2
Flex Tape: amzn.to/3iFQq7K
Flex Glue: amzn.to/3W8ggit
Gorilla Waterproof Patch & Seal Tape: amzn.to/3QHkcpx
NOTE: The Flex and Gorilla products may work for some applications, but Flex products in particular are way over hyped for what they can do, (my experience, your mileage may vary).

The little staples in the gun are not for smoothing out the plastic it's for holding the plastic together you push them in across the cracks while hot the let off trigger let cool then pull gun off.

Good video and technique/advice. We need to repair a very small crack in our similar rain barrel. I think the most important comment you made was (paraphrased) " when the barrel is full of water it will expand"... same is true with temperature changes - expansion and contraction. I think that your repairs, which appear to be very good, will eventually start to leak again... hopefully, if it does leak again, it will be later rather than sooner.

So far so good, I laid in a lot of plastic and the mesh also seems to have made a difference this time...

You mean I could have saved my 40 year old watering can?😎 Nah, after all those years it just got more and more brittle, but 40 years is not so shabby.

I'd be happy with anything that lasts 40 years... Rarely happens now adays...

@@MakeItorBreakItNow yeah, I doubt my new boots will last 10 years! But I still have the old ones to fall back on LOL They are not quite as old as the watering can was.

wow you would recommend gorilla over flex seal? that's surprising since flex seal is the 'premium' popular product. i was trying to decide between the two.

Gorilla is way better than any Flex product I've used to date. Flex just has good marketing, for me their products are not reliable.
