mulro767 Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 Anyone ever seen or heard of this stuff? Looks pretty cool! I'm thinking of applying to my aircraft cover. Maybe someday it will be put to good use in general aviation. Anti-corrosion or anti-ice maybe? http://www.rustoleum.com/product-catalog/industrial-brands/neverwet/ Quote
rocketman Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 Looks interesting but unless I know what its made of or its an approved application for planes, I would not let it have any contact with the planes skin, carpet, seats, etc. I might try it on my car though. Thanks for sharing this, whoever patents this should do very well. Quote

DaV8or Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 I wonder how long the coating lasts. I'd like to put it on the bottom of my boats. Well, that and all over my cars, and my plane too! Quote
mulro767 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Report Posted October 1, 2013 I just applied it to my old Bruce's aircraft cover. I used 3m scotch guard on it once before that did ok. My last trip down to Destin there was some heavy rain. The cover was soaked through. I'll do a few performance tests and report back. I won't be the first to put this stuff on an airplane. Just wondering if maybe it'll find some applications in aviation someday. The can says it works best on metal and plastic. But good on fabric and vinyl. The Clinton comment was awesome! Thanks. Quote

mulro767 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Report Posted October 1, 2013 Works just like the video. I sprayed a garden hose all over the treated cover and let it sit for twenty minutes. I shook the cover for ten seconds and it was dry. Next up, my ski clothes and tent. Quote
kmyfm20s Posted October 1, 2013 Report Posted October 1, 2013 Can you feel a noticeable change to the material? Quote

mulro767 Posted October 2, 2013 Author Report Posted October 2, 2013 It feels a little stiffer and sticky. But the directions say it'll soften up and feel normal over time. 3M scotch guard seemed to go on a bit too dry and flake off quickly. I used it on my ski clothing and it wouldn't last a season.

DaV8or Posted October 2, 2013 Report Posted October 2, 2013 I'm really curious as to how long this coating lasts. How much does it cost? Quote
rbridges Posted October 2, 2013 Report Posted October 2, 2013 Clinton comment was hilarious. That stuff looks really cool. I'm sure there will lots of applications for it until they find out it causes cancer. Quote
