Flex Shot was released as an alternative to a caulk gun. [3] Flex Tape was released as a waterproof tape. [4] Flex Glue was released as a fix-all adhesive. [5] The company has also made several ancillary products over the years, including Block Out, Slick Fix, Maximum Traction, Foamazing, Blast Off and Winter Wax.
