Using Flex Seal...

Saw a TV commercial touting Flex Seal. Has anybody tried using this stuff to seal leaking windshields?

******* I saw the same commercial and am also interested. A google search says that it is sprayed on, black in color but paintable, conforms (swells) to the profile of the cavity it's sealing, is waterproof, etc.

I, also, would like to know more about it.

There's a product especially designed for this...it's called flowable silicone and can be found at most any auto parts store. It's about the consistency of molasses and flows down into cracks and crevices then sets up. Handy stuff for leaks! It's clear BTW.
