Lids were open and product was dried out. I'm sure it was a great product, but unfortunately unfortunately the handling not done properly. I really wish I could buy this product on Amazon, so I could return it.

This product saved my boat from sinking. I had a leak coming in from my exhaust on the outside of the transom. I just packed this product in the area where the seal was breached. No more leaks. Can also be used to help seal wooden/ foam emergency plugs, and many other leaked areas

I bought this product to seal a small, constantly dripping leak in my hot tub. Keep in mind that this leak is not on a pressurized water line. It is simply a leak around one of the fittings in the hot tub shell. The only pressure behind the leak is the pressure from the hot tub water that's sitting in the hot tub. I pressed this wax sealant all around the fitting to try and seal the leak, but it only took a minute or two for the leak to push its way through the wax. So now I not only still have the leak, but the next time I drain the hot tub, I'll have to somehow get all of the messy wax ""sealant"" off so that the silicon sealant will stick and seal the leak. What a mess!

This thick, malleable stuff adheres amazingly well to wet surfaces and fills small gaps to stem the flow. It's good insurance to be able to stop leaks from through-hulls or other sites on a semipermanent basis, rather than having to rely on the bilge pump or hauling the boat out to deal with the problem. I have a container in both of my sailboats and unfortunately have had occasion to use it on each. It really works.

I used Stay Afloat to simply slow down a leak around my stuffing box flange fitting (not the stuffing box or nut). It did not work. It would not stick to the wet wood as advertised, it fell off in chunks, and the water leak simply moved around the material. However, it did stick to my perfectly clean, dry putty knife and gloves! Duhhh. save your money and use Slick Seam or a toilet bowl wax ring.

Stopped leak around through-hull knotmeter when taking out would have been very inconvenient. Adhered even when surfaces were wet.

It is great. Stopped water leaking in from a hole on my deck. It was worth having it on my boat and the cost.

Very Cool Product. I know it;s an OLD navy yard trick of the trade. My grandfather always had ""something"" similar in his boating E kit. Of course You may have to jump off the boat to seal a below deck rock hit in fiberglass, but It's worth having the option. It works. I think it's great to have both, this product along with those expandable triangles you sell for bigger hole plugging. Every boat needs plugs. I would go out with out it. I worked too hard restoring the thing to risk losing it over a 3"" hole. Buy it Keep it in your kit.
