How did this product hold up with water? I am getting mix reviews.

It had such big gaps in the molding, theres no way it could hold up to any moisture, so I sent it back immediately for a refund, minus shipping and handling, and restocking fees so I got screwed.

I installed these over the winter. No water leakage yet. Made my tahoe look new again. I figured for the price, even if they only lasted a couple years, I can just replace them again.

I've had mine for several months now and the passenger side has had moisture in it but so far has not collected water.

Mine our about a year old and no issues with water inside the units and that is going through a car wash at least 2 times a week.

It collects water then becomes clouded inside. I have installed two of these and both cracked and were getting water inside within a matter of months. The quality leaves a lot to be desired. BTW I am a Certified Quality Inspector for a large electronics corporation in Austin TX. Poor quality compared to original part.

So far, my water is still good. The bottles were damaged during shipment but I checked for leakage and broken seals and it the integrity of the bottles were good.

Hello -- I bought this directly but it was for my contractor to use on our new epi (sp?) -- I believe they mixed it with water. He had used it before on another project, and like it a lot. So far, it has performed well on our deck.Thanks.

In my opinion, (college chemistry for two years) the solution is stable for a week and is fine. Just shake it and replace and evaporated water. Please feel free to correct me, anyone with more chemistry training.

I have not had a problem with my product (and looking at other reviews it appears as if though the company replaced any damaged unit.) some people complained about the top breaking or the unit not working but I have not had that issue. The product is mostly plastic and not necessarily "durable", I just make sure I take care of it, clean it and store it in the box. I use only distilled water when steaming my hair. I cleaned the plastic with vinegar/water or windex.

I have never mixed the contents with water. I just go around the pool sprinkling and that is it. I have been doing it for the last 8-10 years. It is very quick dissolving or even if it sits a bit at the bottom - it will dissolve ultimately.

Our product generally withstands a light to moderate rain. However, if the rain is heavy enough to cause puddling or running water that might move the product, we would recommend a re-application in accordance with the directions.

I have had the product laying in front of my very large garage door since last June. It tends to continue to absorb moisture when on concrete. However when I placed it in the sun on a wood deck it dried up right away. Even when it continues to absorb water, it is not a problem. There is never any drippage. The material appears to be very similar to what is in a child's diaper. I expect it expands and contracts depending on the amount of moisture in it. If it is still retaining moisture it is just heavier to handle. I do know that they will eventually disintegrate, but I am not seeing any signs of it yet and it has gotten a lot of use. It was well worth the $50 that I spent for peace of mind. I have not had a drop of water in my garage or house since placing this down in front of the garage door. But if it is used in the area with a car, the directions say that it is important that it not be driven over because it could puncture. However, I have driven over it twice by mistake and it does not appear to have done any damage.

I have a similar set up and yes the product works when mixed in with the water in the bed as directed. Been doing this for many years now, with no undesirable effects to the waterbed.

It is not shiny like the outside. as long as you empty water after use it will stay nice.

They dried very quickly for me. I even dumped some water on the let one day out in the field to test it out. It repelled most of the water and what remained dried quickly.

Hi , I wet it and wring it out every time I use it. It lasts me a ling time since I only use I it on our shower door and tile counters. But after a while , it may begin to shred.

This product will mix well in a shaker. I mixed in 1litre water bottles with mio type flavorings. Product mixed well by shaking. Very cost effective. If it clumped it shook out easily.

I haven't had it long enough for leaks/mildew but two major rain storms and a recent snow storm with single digit temps, it's holding up well. As I mentioned in my review, I did get some water on the floor that was pushed in by the wind. So far so good.

I did three coats on some finished Fir and it holds up to water pretty well. It's satin so don't expect to see a shine. Similar results to Polycrylic satin clear sprays.

I installed the product over two years ago. It has held up well. In fact, it is one of the best things I've done. This season has been exceptionally wet with many days of heavy rain. Routinely, our garage would have a large layer of water. After installing this, it has remained dry. I was certainly glad that something like this was available.

It has held up well. I've had mine about 6 months now. Although the liner is not water proof so if there are many accidents the foam is pretty much ruined.
