What Is the Best Way to Apply Flex Seal Liquid?
Flex Seal Liquid is known for its excellent coverage and smooth, rubberized finish, making it a go-to option for coating, sealing, or protecting surfaces with precision. But to get the most out of it, application technique matters.
Here’s how to apply Flex Seal Liquid for strong, long-lasting results:
- Clean the surface: Make sure it’s free of dust, dirt, grease, or debris.
- Choose your application type: You can brush, roll, dip, or pour it, depending on your project.
- Use a brush for detailed or vertical areas.
- Use a roller for large, flat surfaces like rooftops or decks.
- Dip objects directly (like tools or handles) for full rubberized coating.
- Pour into gaps or molds for custom sealing or shaping.
- Apply in even layers: Start with a thin coat, let it dry, then build additional layers as needed.
- Allow to cure: Flex Seal Liquid typically takes 24–48 hours to fully cure, depending on temperature, humidity, and the thickness of the application.
