Will Flex Sealed Clothes Keep You Dry?

so awkward like the movement you're like get me out of this rubber bag how tough and waterproof is clothing completely covered in flex seal guys we're back with more flex seal products we love flex seal flex seal is great uh we've got the spray flex seal and we've got the paint on flex seal to test out what this waterproof seal is gonna be like on clothing we have a shirt pants and some little minky fur booty things they're called muk lux cozies well the inside is delightfully fuzzy furry the outside is also delightly fuzzy but i don't think that it's very waterproof that's why i went with these i went with the least waterproof booties i could find here's the basic idea we've got a shirt pants and some boots that we are going to cover completely in flex seal we've got a spray and a paint on version and we're going to see what the clothing is like after it's been completely waterproofed well i've actually not ever used the spray stuff or very little and so i want to take my shirt and try spraying a little area of it i actually do think we're going to end up using the paint on stuff for most of it but i want to try this stuff out okay i like it [Music] i'm applying it very thick because a thin coat will kind of get absorbed into the cloth i want a rubberized covering on this shirt all right let's see how the painting process goes it's going to be slow but i think it works it'd actually be interesting to compare the difference between the spray-on stuff the paint on stuff which is one of the reasons i got both is i think the paint on stuff is going to be a lot thicker and more rubber coaty that is fair so far so good our pants and our shirt look fantastic uh we're gonna start coating the shoes now which just by touching i've already managed to coat there's a movie who framed roger rabbit and they have something called the dip and they take a boot and they just dip it in and it kills it it's really sad but look it's the dip [Music] i think my dip method worked a lot faster but it is very goopy because of like the texture of this does have to go on pretty heavy and like get smudged in there smudged smudged in all right we've got everything coated and it's supposed to take 24 to 48 hours to dry so we're going to let it have that time and we'll come back and test it we had some string and knots let go but i think it happened after everything dried for the most part because this looks fantastic fantastic is an operative term here in terms of what we were hoping to see it looks fantastic there we go oh all right i'm just gonna pull my my mannequin bag oh it's kind of just holding its shape anyway okay well that's good it looks like it's pulling apart just fine and i think the snaps because it was snapped up while i painted it they're clean enough yep they just snap back together so all the stuff that we spilled on the plastic it actually comes off of this plastic pretty nicely yeah okay but it's interesting how so it does have some stretch but it also just tears fairly easily it's not very durable which is fine that's not what it's supposed to do we're not saying it's bad product or isn't working well it's not meant to make a strong durable rubber off of stuff it's supposed to be a sealant all right well i want to test some waterproofness first i want to try the spray and then i want to try the paint this part was sprayed on so i'm just going to pour some water right here i'm gonna say that's pretty waterproof i don't think that got through at all good just uh as a test if i put water on this side yeah so this side you can still get like water into the cloth this side it did not get through at all there's an interesting difference like you can see this is the painted on this is the sprayed on it's it's much shinier it looks more like rubber like a rubber coating yeah thicker definitely that's uh it's pretty uh pretty waterproof right there you want to test out your pants all right shoe all right so yeah all the all the flexibility and comfort of like a heavy rain coat uh but with the close fit of a shirt and like yeah the chest just kind of likes to stay open it doesn't have much drape to it at all do you think it's possible to stretch the cuffs of the pants over the boots so that if we spray you with water long enough are gonna be full of um that's why i took my socks off okay well i have great traction oh because you like dipped those too i bet it's not very durable but like right now it's quite good this is about to be very cold test some waterproofness can i have the shirt uh yes after i do a quick a couple snow tests we've got some snow outside right now so there's a shield feels like it's very dry still after one whole snowball i also suspect that if i were to actually wear this a lot and run around i would get hot and sweaty and that moisture would have nowhere to go and it would all just soak the clothing underneath it gosh i'm not wearing socks my feet are relatively warm nice and dry yeah so the traction isn't great on the slick cement [Music] the new winter line from flex seal i have never looked better let's go okay waterproof yes warm no i'm very cold right now [Laughter] but i'm dry okay i will try my best to avoid spraying your head thank you i'm just going to try and get your back in front mostly and it is going to go like that yeah yeah side and back is kind of my thought um it is going to fill your boots it's going to fill my boots it's going to be so cold okay here goes we figured it out we made a raincoat this is a good look for anyone guys it's 29 degrees outside how are your feet don't fall away yep blow the water just full of water but the rest of me but i'm curious now is the shirt under the flex seal shirt wet at all not even well a little where the um a tiny bit where the buttons were but everything else it's absolutely fine very very waterproof and how are you for warmth still like pretty cold but actually more insulated like when the water was hitting me i was really really cold now i'm not now it's actually pretty fine that makes sense i'm not your feet probably are uh in puddles oh all the fuzz has absorbed it it's it's very fuzzy on the inside oh that's too much water the jacket before was covering these pockets that were open but now this is open it's trailed water into the pockets and i have water just running down the inside of my leg oh my gosh it's there are little holes not quite waterproof that let it out with the pressure a lot of it is waterproof but the places where it was like okay but try mine the one i dipped because you painted yourself that's true that's true nope that's actually leaking more i think wow yeah look it's got like rivulets coming off of it i think it does do a really good job of being waterproof from the outside uh-huh when there's pressure pushing at every single pore like if there's a tiny little pore it's not gonna like get into it but like when it's being pushed out through it yeah it still manages to uh drip a little bit wow guys we have the whole bucket of flex seal left so there's other things you want to see this test with clothing we can do that if there's other non-clothing things you want to see us test a camping tent or something that would be the worst very heavy tent and all the moisture would get stuck inside but it wouldn't get right into it yeah that's fair guys that's not all if you like this kind of content make sure to hit that box up there to see our most recent video and we'll see you in the next one talk to you then
