Review on Flex Tape Mini: Unleash the Power of Super Strong Waterproof Clear Tape (TFSCLRMINI) by Vic Alexander

Revainrating 4 out of 5

I had high hopes this would work

I really expected this to work to patch a tiny hole in my Coleman Saluspa inflatable hot tub. It's much thicker and feels stickier than the band-aids Coleman supplied, which came off easily right away and was breathable. I deflated the spa, patched it, then left it on for 24 hours and did the same with FlexTape. The FlexSeal used was pretty good. Flex tape lasts a long time. I should stress that this is a tiny hole and I doubt it takes much pressure to blast it, it's like a kid's pool. The spa was defective when received, the hole appears to have been made during packaging or shipping. Coleman didn't even answer. The FlexTape would have been a good emergency fix, but I was surprised it didn't fix the air leak from the hole. UPDATE: A few days later the FlexTape hasn't really leaked out and seems to be holding up, so I'm rating it higher than I initially thought. Release the trapped air quickly though, you won't be able to do this later.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Low maintainability
