    I've used several of their products and I gotta say, it works. Flex tape is by far the stickiest thing I have ever seen. I wouldn't put it on anything I liked as I think the adhesive would be impossible to remove. I used flex seal to caulk a leaky sink, it stuck to the metal sink stronger than a weld.

    Toyota seems to make it easy sometimes. That's a pretty boneheaded place to put it.

    I thought about cutting the bottom of my jon boat out and putting screen and flex seal over it but I just can't bring myself to do it.

    Wouldn't it be easier and cheaper to just switch the wires on the knobs? Problem solved.

    I practice the "look before you go method". This method is also useful in the bedroom

    A 4Runner? That’s like handing a screwdriver to someone who needs a sledgehammer.
