No. Factory waterproofing is a nanopolymer internal coating that's applied via pressure after the phone has been assembled. When you disassemble a waterproofed phone, you break that coating and weaken the protection. You won't fully destroy the protection; you're just weakening it at the places where you've taken things (including screws) apart.
On the bright side, some stores (like mine!) have the necessary equipment to restore that nanopolymer coating after a hardware repair has been made. It's inexpensive and quick to apply, typically taking less than 10 minutes.

Do you have a recommendation for a place that offers that service in Los Angeles?
Contact the folks at nanoflowx.com and ask them if they have any installations in your area. That's the device I have.
Anywhere in Georgia ?
So I am planning to open my phone and I would like to keep that waterproof feature. I am not going to fix anything just doing a little mod... So I am not going to a repair shop that will re-waterproof my phone, I need to try it myself. I plan to apply nanostate flash flood and put a lot of pressure on my phone after closing it so that the adhesive really compacts up. I will open the huawei mate 20 pro so no screws to worry about. Do you think that would work?
It will provide some protection but will not restore the factory water resistance. Over-the-counter products like Flash Flood don't do anything to protect the internals and circuitry of the device like factory-applied (and NanoFlowX) coatings do; they are basically wipe on/wipe off products like car wax. NanoFlowX water resistance vaporizes a nanopolymer coating and pushes/pulls that vapor through the holes in the device (SIM card slot, memory card slot, microphone, speakers, etc) to coat all of the internals. There is no way to reapply a factory-type coating without special equipment.

I've personally have open the Note 8 and know that you can buy a replacement seal and Back glass and it'll cost you less than $15. It's only 10 screws to get to the battery after you use a heat pad to remove the back glass it's easy if you have a heat pad or heat gun or hair dryer you just need a lot of guitar picks or credit cards to slide underneath the edges all around it. P.S. the fingerprint scanner connector is on the right side of it and the camera lens cover assembly and that comes off with the rear glass as one piece.
