     Has anyone used any and if so what do you think? I have 3 outside wood door jambs that I coated with the flex seal white paint about 6 weeks ago and so far seems to be fine. They have been painted two times in the past with exterior primer and paint and have always started peeling within a year. Hope this stuff stays on; has a rubbery feel to touch and not quite as smooth as regular paint but looks OK to me.

peeling paint... usually says the wood was not DRY when painted. By 'dry' that means ALl the way to the core of the wood, not just 'surface' dry.
Any wood facing south, gets good sun and it's gets 'dry to the bone' but northern sided wood, in shade and damp, could take weeks to dry
Then there's the latex on oil paints problem... latex will peel off the oil based paint. Proof ? Just look at my upstairs bathroom ceiling.....

I have not used the  "paint" but I have used their paste and I believe that they have a great product, it worked very very well for me, just a bit pricey but I guess you get what you pay for.

I've used the spray can Flex Seal on a thin crack on a roof vent 2 years ago and it is still leak free.
