Can this be used on a WOODEN canoe for leaky cracks, due to dropping it? It was sprayed with that spray on leak seal advertised on TV. (didn't work)

Honestly, I am not 100% sure. But from my experience using it, I think it can. Since it required to put many layer of fiber glass resins and it should work on wood as well.

I wouldn't count on it. It wouldn't even seal a gutter like they show on TV. Total fraud! For the crack get some Plastic Epoxy at Lowes or Ace Hardware. I used it to seal crack in sailboat. Good Luck!

yes.....if the wood is unsealed or not painted it may penetrate the surface and enter the grain...if the wood product is sealed or painted it works just as described. You might want to consider "Wet and Forget" also...google it and read its applications..I use it on wood decking.

I doubt if it would harm the fittings material, for my purposes, it has always "just worked." Probably the smart move would be to test the sealant on a spare fitting first.

Oh yeah. You can use it all over the boat, I highly recomend it on the bottom. I hit a large stump just three inches under water, put a crease right down the center bottom, the Gluvit flexed with it NO LEAKS!.

It hasn't leaked on me and I have used it for years under virtually all conditions. If I ever got wet it was either from condensation dripping off of the fly through the screen or trying to get in and out of the Solitaire in the rain. You can spray the fabric of the rainfly with "Scotchguard" water repellant. If that is not sufficient I think you could probably use the seam sealer liquid to coat the fabric.

Nope it was ultra weak! Try another brand. I found a dye leak tester at a local auto store for about 20 that worked well for that

I used it on a wooden sculpture for the backyard. However, wooden boats have used this product years ago. I would use it for the paddles. They aren't under the water all the time. Right?

I don't think so. Where is the leak and what kind of leak is it? I was not impressed. If the leak is under water, i think under-water epoxy is the best joce. It is used on swimming pools and I used it on a leaking pool light connector. It worked great.

I haven't used it on cedar or pressure-treated deck lumber, but I did use it on my front porch pine(?) joists where the wood had rotted away. It adhered very well to the wood and dried normally. Now, however, it's covered with new, Douglas Fir, tongue and groove deck boards, so I'm not sure how well it's going to weather.I suspect it will do very well. I use this stuff whenever I need a super hard, water resistant repair.

I used it on the fiberglass roof of horse trailer. Stopped the leaks no problem

I don't know if it will or not, but the repair I used it for... nothing else worked. Then I tried Gorilla Epoxy and it worked and has been working since Christmas time. I would definitely give it a shot. I would recommend keeping pressure on it after you glue it for at least five minutes and then letting it dry for at least 24 hours before you try it. I actually waited 48 hours, but I had such bad luck with other products before, that I allowed extra time, though I think it would have worked. Also - after I put the epoxy inside the area that broke off, I also sealed it on the outside with the epoxy, to just make sure. It is somewhat clear, so I would imaging if you are running water, you wouldn't see that extra layer of epoxy on the outside.

Don't think you should use this on wooden boats. I'm sure there is a Velspar product made for boats. I'm often wrong but never in doubt

When I put on canoe with the zipper on top & closed it leaked when it rained.I suggest some time of flap over the zipper when closed.

I don't know. I would get more info first. I used it and it worked. I think it softens and swells seals to stop the leak. If that is the case and your seals are just dried out it should work. Good Luck. Kent

I have heard that this product works well under boats...I would think it should work. I have used it on dry surfaces.

yes IF the wood is painted or sealed - always test, test, test before diving in and spraying anything that is wood. Never use it on unsealed wood as it will affect the wood and may result in an expensive fix or replacement.
