Interesting product.
I would be interesting to see if it works as antifouling & for how long.
Thats what I was thinking. My boat having a top speed of 52mph with a single engine, I think it would be a perfect candidate. If I remember about it, I'll order some and give it a try when it comes out of storage.

I think it would definitely be able to be incorporated on running surfaces to some extent. How bout gear cases? Flat pad of v bottom? Bottom of tabs?

Default doubt it

Ok if this stuff was so good it'd be bought by a huge company and used on EVERYTHING.
buildings=vinyl siding $$$$
Clothes= jackets/ boots, etc....... Think timberland, ll bean, etc....$$$$

My point is if this stuff performed we would see it in everyday products and its only form of advertising wouldn't be a crappy youtube vid.

No cleaners high pressure water or bare hands. Don't think it will work on boats. Artie http://youtu.be/Z-WNb0NLSTI

Saw this stuff at a chemical trade show about a year ago and the first thing I thought of was water spots on my toys

I was told there by the rep that the product dries flat and hazy, it also will not adhere properly to a slick surface for long. He also stated in its current form as a top coat it was made to protect items in the short term, but will wear off so it is not a permanent solution.

They had future plans to actually manufacture items with this product as part of the material source, giving it longevity. Neat stuff, but really just the next stage up from scotch brite which people were amazed by in the 80's and now rarely use
