The applications in the marine world are endless.

Imagine the hull performance if water was trying to repel from it, low friction.
Imagine the anti corrosion opportunities.

Pretty cool technology.

Cool chit for sure.

Roofing. Aircraft. How about pipe lining to promote drainage and clog prevention. Could really lose some time thinking of uses.

Makes me wonder is a hull would even handle the same. If the water responded this way to it would it act like steps or repel with a lack of control such as like poles of magnets put toward each other.
Cool stuff though.

Rust oleum makes a product called "Never Wet ". Two part spray on kit. Repels water from everything you coat with it. I believe there is a video of it on YouTube. I am going to try it in the spring. Interesting to see if it actually works.
