Rust-Oleum NeverWet, available at Home Depot, is a superhydrophobic spray-on coating that repels water, mud, ice and other liquids. DETAILS: bit.ly/103PQPL
Firstly, I'd like to say I was amazed by this commercial and couldn't wait to buy it. Second thought, NeverWet to me sounds like an awfully impossible goal to achieve, since the word 'never' implies that the product should forever be a defense against water. After purchasing, and following the directions, I simply conducted a test using similar plastic containers shown in the video. I followed their directions on the cans, and as a professional painter, I also conducted a test sanding the surface of the plastic with 220 grit paper, and using the 24-hour cure rule between coats. With each container, I simply placed water in the containers. Worked amazingly. For the first set, used as directed, the water began to break down the NeverWet barrier after 5 uses - meaning, had water in the container, left it for 10 minutes or so, then simply poured it out...repeat. What happened was a hazy film started to crystalize on the top of the water, which acted similarly to when one puts oil in water. After I saw this, as a professional painter, I know it is harmful to our environment and our water systems to be flushing or throwing chemically contaminated water down the drains. I had to pour the majority of it into cat liter, and throw that away, which is still not a perfect idea. The second set of containers, broke down no more than 8 uses each in the same fashion. This time, however, I used a small taclon artist's brush to move the water around in the container and it scraped the product off the plastic. After this occurred, I wondered, why a company would show a few hundred dollar phone treated with their product knowing that some layman would do this to his phone...and use as shown...perhaps it works once or twice, but once that barrier breaks down and destroys the components of his phone, he would certainly be in the right to go after a claim. I also thought that if somebody sprays this on his tshirt, it would potentially cause an allergic reaction to the skin from the harmful chemicals in the product. Secondly, it would wash out immediately as soon as soap or detergent washes it off - simple chemistry here. Another thought I had was why do they show everybody in the video not using the proper protection when applying the product? This is product is extremely toxic - similar to lacquer-based sprays - and is carcinogenic. EVERYBODY who buys the product should use a carbon-filtered mask with eyegear and chemical gloves. Period. The last point is, this product leaves a hazy film on all surfaces...it will ruin any color other than white. If you're serious about the product, call OSHA or the EPA and see what they say...I have a feeling that this company or the product will be facing serious lawsuits soon enough. I seriously have a concern on how people will dispose of the water they use on treated products. I wouldn't even treat my toilet brush, since it will eventually breakdown and come off, and contaminate my toilet. Sorry.
George Alonso Yeah, bro. I was super excited about this product. I thought I could use this to treat my mixing containers for the hand-painted wallcovering company. I figured I would save plastic containers by coating them with this. So all my formulae could easily be used within small amounts of containers, since this product would clean easily. It turns out, that if you add any amount of pigment to the water at all, it will break it down quickly. I think that has to do with the polypropolene or whatever within acrylic dispersion - some chemist can tell me better on that one. I was sorely disappointed with this product, because this video literally went viral, and I was one of the 'believers' once I saw it. There might be a use somewhere out there, but the thickness of texture and color will limit the use, even if temporarily used. I think a more apt name for this product would be 'TemporarilyDry' rather than NeverWet. Crazy.
From someone who bought and used (not me) Despite the original video demonstrations for NeverWet, the instructions make it pretty clear that you aren’t supposed to use this on electronics or clothing.
I feel like putting this stuff in your iPhone's dock/charging connector would be a problem. If it's electrically conductive, it'll short the pins together. If it's an insulator, it'll keep you from ever using that port again.
From the - Material Safety Data Sheet - *"EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE CHRONIC HAZARDS:* May cause central nervous system disorder (e.g., narcosis involving a loss of coordination, weakness, fatigue, mental confusion, and blurred vision) and/or damage. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage. PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY: Eye Contact, Ingestion, Inhalation, Skin Absorption, Skin Contact" It also comes off as a fine powder when touched or with normal usage and will then come into skin contact and be absorbed into the skin and/or eye if rubbing it or around it and be inhaled... when it comes off as a powder... as it does with normal use (according to other youtubers who tried this). I would rather be soaking wet than be exposed to this.
Using any chemical on your skin is a bad idea. Always. Your skin acts like a sponge, and it absorbs much of what you put on it. Chemicals absorbed like this can affect your Liver and Central Nervous System. Some cause Skin Cancer. This stuff is probably safe when dry, but ~not~ when it's wet.
How does the cloth feel after application? Does it harden up or what? What about leather and canvas.. Ie; Sneakers? I only want to use it on my sneakers, but not at the risk of it turning the leather into A Teflon coated piece of steal
I just thought of something genius! Parents should spray it all over their toddlers so when they're passed out drunk and their kid falls into the pool they'll just bounce off the water!
Guillaume Zahra Perhaps you are correct. I guess there is only one way to find out for sure: a scientific study.Now we just need a few hundred kids so that we have a large enough group to assure the accuracy of the results. I'm going to go start kidnapping bunches of toddlers and you could go procure a few cases of NeverWet. Let's meet back here in a week. Deal?
plopbellie There are no deaths because people obviously took my advice and their kids just bounce on the water until they land on the other side of the pool.
It states right on their website "Not intended to be applied to electronic devices". It also says that NeverWet should be reapplied when water no longer rolls off the surface. So, it can come off somehow, perhaps by continual contact such as rubbing.
I bought this. Tested it on a cardboard box and it's actually works!... Can't wait to do more tests on things. They just need to vibe up with a clear version now instead of a frosting finish!...
Neverwet is nothing more than a Novelty item. I have purchased it an am not satisfied at all. There are too many negative points against it to recommend it to anyone other than using it for a very short term, temporary fix. Here are the points to mention. Neverwet on anything will severely discolor it. - on any material that is absorbent such as fabric, may need a full can or more to achieve desired results. - will be tacky (like paint not completely dry) to the touch, even after several hours of curing. - will leave fabric a lot stiffer than normal - will feel like sandpaper to the touch - will degrade very rapidly if treated material is used constantly. - will degrade if subjected to heat higher than room tempurature - will degrade if treated material is subjected to abrasiveness - will degrade if treated material is subjected to the environment. - application may not last an entire day - will come off onto skin - is toxic - is a carcinogen What does this mean? How does this affect their advertising as shown in their promotional video's and on the box and in user videos? On the box, it shows a satellite dish. Metal doesn't need waterproofing. Water doesn't adhere to satellite dishes to the point where reception is affected. Constent weathering such as blowing particles in the air even the bombardment of ice pellets in the winter, will greatly degrade the product. I would be surprised if the treatment would last a week in the winter. On concrete, again, I would imagine weathering would destroy the application due to tiny particles in the air blowing against it (abrasion), UV rays and heat would also play a factor in it's longevity. What part of concrete need be waterproofed to the point where aesthetics of the concrete ended up horrible? Why would someone have the need to waterproof concrete? Water doesn't permeate it. On wood, say a deck or a fence. It wouldn't be desirable as a deck is susceptible to traffic, the environment which would cause abrasion and heat, which would slowly melt the fibres, which are needed as they take advantage of the waters surface tension. Other uses they claim: aluminum, galvanized metal, PVC, masonry, asphalt, vinyl siding, plastic, fabric leather, and canvas. All which are subject to the points above. In video's, people treated shoes, shirts, boxes, gloves, sinks, containers, spatulas, vehicle side panels, spoons windows and just about everything. These are all undesirable, unsafe and poisonous applications for reasons listed above. I cannot think of one product that needs treatment that isn't already waterproof, would be effective in real world applications, would be effective other than to show a short video demonstration to help sell the product, or would lead someone to sacrifice aesthetics. The only use I believe this to have, is for a very short term temporary fix to something that needs water-proofing to allow you time to run to the store for replacement of for a proper fix to what it is being applied to. Would that be worth the 30.00? Probably not.
So you wouldn't recommend that I spray it all over my 3 year old so that if I'm passed out drunk and he stumbles into the pool he'll just bounce off the water?
Since when is it easier to take beer out of the box, spray the box with multiple coats, put beer back in box, and add ice than it is to use a cooler? lol. But on a serious note, if you spray in on clothes does it come off in the wash?
So how long does it last on various surfaces? I imagine if it's very durable then putting it on the bottom of a boat hull will increase speed and lower fuel consumption. Again, assuming it's durable.
I would assume that some of what a boat hull does is based on the relative friction that exists between the hull and the water. changing the surface angles as drastically as never wet does, might be interesting to see. Would it affect the boats stability or resitance to tipping over?
Some friends of mine were talking, and this product came up. One of us asked, after playing "Yandere Simulator" that morning, if he coated a knife and his clothes, there will be no evidence the knife was used to kill. The conversation stopped there. .-.
Looks good but how long it lasts is an important factor. Will it work on a windshield? What about cold temperatures will it allow frost to form. It could be very useful if it deters rust. I will try some...once to see..twice if it works..
I haven't used this before, but I bet some of it will stay after it's washed, so you'd need to coat it again. As for odors, it's probably smell-free (is that a word?)
If this product works for real there shouldn't be any problem. You know, odors are directly product of fluids, they shouldn't stick to the covered surface unless, of course, the formula wasn't completely effective yet. I'm still skeptic.
Erik Galindo It doesn't matter what's my sexual orientation is but we know you're a discriminating troll. Hope internet's anonymity and trolling others makes up for your insecurities.
Hey you wrote the gay comment not me. Don't get mad cause I put you on front street. Since when is sending one message considered trolling? I have no insecurities but it's nice to know your still shy about coming out of the closest.
If you spray the inside walls of a glass tumbler with NeverWet but not the inside base of that tumbler, and then you fill up the tumbler with water or with another liquid of your choice, like mustard, will it form a mustard tower inside the tumbler? Can you take a photo of the mustard tower and upload it very soon?
Will this product when applied keep tape fro sticking to say a metal light pole? That would be awesome to apply it to say the lower 8 feet or so of the pole and no ne could tape there garage sale signs etc... how about spray paint? Would it not allow that to adhere either? Major graffiti fighting tool!
What happens if you breath it in while spraying and it gets in your lungs? How about your eyes? Will it ever come off? How so? What happens if you want to wash your favorite shirt? Can you remove the layers? Lots of safety issues to be addressed here. Has this product even passed inspection of any sort?
Yeah, right! Then you buy it (like i did) and it says "Do not spray on clothing or electronics." That's why i bought it!!! I wrote to complain and "Rustoleum" wrote back saying it wasn't their video. VERY misleading! Save your bucks
Note: Opening and spraying the iPhone like this will VOID the guarantee! You will not be able to go to the Genius Bar or receive AppleCare. Do not do this!!!!
You don't spray it into the ground... so I'm not worried about that. But I am curious to see if it's safe to use on your clothing and such. Will there be some side effects from essentially applying it onto yourself or your clothing?
Personally, I wouldn't want food containers to be lined with a new product. After many years, when it has been extensively tested for health issues... then maybe. I can live with annoying ketchup way more than with gradual poisoning.
+FeelTheLack Hi You added a comment to my video about the Ron Wyatt and the blood sample. I am trying to contact you so we can talk about this subject. I would like to fill in the details for you. Message me on youtube and so we can talk. I am atenorforjesus
is there a point to this crap? What would you really use it for? What if it gets into the waterways? And if you spill gravy on your shirt then it will fall on your carpet.

I bought some 6 months ago.. still have not found anything to put it on... cloths., NOT - what? you are never going to wash them? and if you do this stuff comes off. shoes? if you like a milky film on them and plan to spill mustard on them, can't remember doing that my whole life. Not even catsup.. Electronics? tells you all over the instructions NOT for Electronics Plunger,, really? I have a life... like I said, 6 months, maybe longer, still have not come up with idea.. . it's not clear like they let you believe
You buy this if you need it for something. don't buy it if you have no need for it, thats just stupid. and just because you don't need it doesn't mean other people don't. Also if you haven't used it how do you know it comes off in the washer???
xXSIMPSXx because I watched the videos first and then bought it with things in mind, then read the details that are on the inside of the package, like washing it removes it, if you spray it except a foggy film, I wanted to use it on some electronics, they have in bold (inside the package) not recommended for any electronic. So there you go.
xXSIMPSXx they say it on the instructions about washing it. I bought it for some electronics, first thing on the instructions after you open packages says NOT for electronics. You asked I am telling you. hahaha and it seems like I am repeating myself, did not remember I replied.
Looks a great product, could anyone please tell me if it will stand up to soapy products ? Would it break down or fail if in constant contact with soapy water ?
I dont advise spraying that on your carwheels before getting it out of your garrage on a rainy day. However you can rub candlewax on clothes and shoes then melt the wax into the fibers and in between with a hairdryer, dont blow too much, just till when you see the wax melting and getting inside. However it works for watter, i dont know about the rest. Best way is they're awesome product.
Yea like how can you even clean your clothes if you spray this stuff on or you just don't clean your clothes which would be pretty awesome if they don't leave any residue behind, think of the possibilities of just 1 pair of clothes for life and all the money you can save on cleaning alone! :) I am joking but you get the idea, might have to go pick this up, wonder how toxic this is though.
Yeah, it is cool. But all presented stuff are solvable in water so technically you are just showing the same thing repeatedly. So: 1) Show me how some other liquid with different surface tension behave - like oil, fat, wax 2) Show me how the layer is resistant to abbrasion so that it doesn't wear off in few minutes If it can bear this then it would be truly awesome.
dlakodlak What about mustard, it has a pretty high lipid tax. Oil Fat and Wax has high lipidious taxes, thats why it doesn't solves in water, so its basically the same thing.
dlakodlak I have made quite a bit of gravies and they have almost no water. It is usually left over fat from meat (that jarred stuff probably is using a vegetable oil though).
Favian Casas You don't understand what cancer is... Cancer is nothing but a dehydrated cell. Your muscles undergo cancer after you finish working out(the right way), which is why it is important to stay hydrated...
This product has some great uses, but did you ever think about what happens when you sweat (under your armpits)? If you spray the whole shirt lets say for a small child, what happens to all that sweat under his or her armpits? the shirt usually absorbs this, but will it just run down your side?
So does using this on your phone and putting it in all the holes and ports won't this affect you being able to charge the phone since it will be coating the inside that makes connection with your charging cord that has to receive electricity?
Firstly, I'd like to say I was amazed by this commercial and couldn't wait to buy it. Second thought, NeverWet to me sounds like an awfully impossible goal to achieve, since the word 'never' implies that the product should forever be a defense against water. After purchasing, and following the directions, I simply conducted a test using similar plastic containers shown in the video.

If you're serious about the product, call OSHA or the EPA and see what they say...I have a feeling that this company or the product will be facing serious lawsuits soon enough. I seriously have a concern on how people will dispose of the water they use on treated products. I wouldn't even treat my toilet brush, since it will eventually breakdown and come off, and contaminate my toilet. Sorry.
Did you really do the test? Ha ha
George Alonso Yeah, bro. I was super excited about this product. I thought I could use this to treat my mixing containers for the hand-painted wallcovering company. I figured I would save plastic containers by coating them with this. So all my formulae could easily be used within small amounts of containers, since this product would clean easily.

I think a more apt name for this product would be 'TemporarilyDry' rather than NeverWet. Crazy.
You're a hippie loser. Get a life.
So eloquently said. How much you selling yours for? I want to be just like you, Mr. Sanchez.
wow thanks for the research ^^
I saw a non-commercial non-sponsor test, and it actually works pretty well
i wonder if this can make hydrodynamics better ?
what if you coat a boat with this, will it get more efficient ?
I doubt it
From someone who bought and used (not me) Despite the original video demonstrations for NeverWet, the instructions make it pretty clear that you aren’t supposed to use this on electronics or clothing.
I think probably one of the more useful aspects of this, is keeping recording equipment dry, such as filming in the rain and such
I feel like putting this stuff in your iPhone's dock/charging connector would be a problem. If it's electrically conductive, it'll short the pins together. If it's an insulator, it'll keep you from ever using that port again.
it was probably just for demonstrational purposes. i don’t think anyone would try that.

Why have I not heard of this until tonight. This is pure genius.
Because it is super toxic and super carcinogenic.
It's important that you wear rubber gloves when handling deadly chocolate syrup and mustard. Safety first.
Controlled variable
Atleast it doesn't repell on & they're not that dangerous
What happens if you use it on your hands? Will you be able to pick up water without getting your hands wet?
it means you can wipe your butt with no toilet paper.
it would tear away after a few days or even a week since we shed skin every day
Using any chemical on your skin is a bad idea. Always.
Your skin acts like a sponge, and it absorbs much of what you put on it.
Chemicals absorbed like this can affect your Liver and Central Nervous System.
Some cause Skin Cancer.
This stuff is probably safe when dry, but ~not~ when it's wet.
Neil Mathieson plz i need more about the side effect as i want to use in my food machine to prevent sticky
what happen if i spray this on my fish and put it back in the fish tank?
WALDO I FOUND YOU!
It will die because it's toxic
Why is Waldo so famous?
I'm getting this for my toilet. This will eliminate the need for my toilet brush and save a crap load of time on cleaning up sh!tty situations.
This is AMAZING
As amazing and useful as this product is, how long does it last, and what kind of chemicals does it have?
You'l read on that product
Funny how everything that repels is hydrophilic. How about dropping some oil or fats on there? Wonder if it will stick like glue
I don't know why but i watched the whole video with a smile on my face! I only stopped when i found myself doing it! It's incredible by the way! :)
How does the cloth feel after application? Does it harden up or what? What about leather and canvas.. Ie; Sneakers? I only want to use it on my sneakers, but not at the risk of it turning the leather into A Teflon coated piece of steal
I just thought of something genius! Parents should spray it all over their toddlers so when they're passed out drunk and their kid falls into the pool they'll just bounce off the water!
Or maybe they will die on the floor of the pool ?...
Guillaume Zahra Perhaps you are correct. I guess there is only one way to find out for sure: a scientific study.Now we just need a few hundred kids so that we have a large enough group to assure the accuracy of the results. I'm going to go start kidnapping bunches of toddlers and you could go procure a few cases of NeverWet. Let's meet back here in a week. Deal?
***** its been a week. where are the dead children.
plopbellie There are no deaths because people obviously took my advice and their kids just bounce on the water until they land on the other side of the pool.
***** You jerk! I coated my dog and she sank like a rock! Luckly she burped and bubble to breath so all is good! LOL; JK your not a jerk!
I'll spray this on my fish
***** Take a joke, moron.
+Julian K that's messed up but i laughed so hard!
make a video
It works, I tried it today. Had my partner pour hot coffee on my shoes while they were on my feet. AWESOME PRODUCT !!!!!!!!
how does it breathe? will I be sweating heavily under my "never wet" t-shirt or will it feel breezy still?
If I spray this on my feet, am I able to walk on water?
no. the water repels out around you and you sink.
MeinLink Perhaps if you're a hobbit and you run like the wind.
***** No shit Sherlock :P
***** so you can't swim right?I mean you would always go down in to the deep water? right? i dunno xD
MeinLink Never hurts trying.
Great ! Can i spray this on car windscreen ?!
I don't think you can because it leaves behind a white residue.
i see, anyway worth knowing such product exist. will there b special release for glass / windscreen purposes?
get rain-x for that :)
MyAccountBitch using rain-x now but neverwet seem so much better...
GENIUS ALERT
i did try this product before, pros it is a water and other liquids repellents, on my boots cons it change the color to a dark gray, really works
can i slide or walk on water if i do that on my whole body or full swinsuit??? plz tell me
lmfao
no but seriously, can he? because that means I can. and I will do it.
You just put one or two extra coats.
what happens if you spray it on a fish? will they swim faster or die?
I gotta admit....
This is amazing
how did I find u
It states right on their website "Not intended to be applied to electronic devices". It also says that NeverWet should be reapplied when water no longer rolls off the surface. So, it can come off somehow, perhaps by continual contact such as rubbing.
i. need. this. product. right. now.
how long does the effect last?
GREAT QUESTION
How do you clean NeverWet off????
I bought this. Tested it on a cardboard box and it's actually works!... Can't wait to do more tests on things. They just need to vibe up with a clear version now instead of a frosting finish!...
Neverwet is nothing more than a Novelty item. I have purchased it an am not satisfied at all. There are too many negative points against it to recommend it to anyone other than using it for a very short term, temporary fix.
Here are the points to mention.
Neverwet on anything will severely discolor it.
- on any material that is absorbent such as fabric, may need a full can or more to achieve desired results.
- will be tacky (like paint not completely dry) to the touch, even after several hours of curing.
- will leave fabric a lot stiffer than normal
- will feel like sandpaper to the touch
- will degrade very rapidly if treated material is used constantly.
- will degrade if subjected to heat higher than room tempurature
- will degrade if treated material is subjected to abrasiveness
- will degrade if treated material is subjected to the environment.
- application may not last an entire day
- will come off onto skin
- is toxic
- is a carcinogen
What does this mean? How does this affect their advertising as shown in their promotional video's and on the box and in user videos?
On the box, it shows a satellite dish. Metal doesn't need waterproofing. Water doesn't adhere to satellite dishes to the point where reception is affected. Constent weathering such as blowing particles in the air even the bombardment of ice pellets in the winter, will greatly degrade the product.

right so applying it to say my gortex jacket as a extra coating would be a no go or what about warm kit like fleece?
So you wouldn't recommend that I spray it all over my 3 year old so that if I'm passed out drunk and he stumbles into the pool he'll just bounce off the water?
Good for you. This is not a customer review site.
I stopped reading when you said, water doesn't permeate concrete.
Since when is it easier to take beer out of the box, spray the box with multiple coats, put beer back in box, and add ice than it is to use a cooler? lol. But on a serious note, if you spray in on clothes does it come off in the wash?
never mind that will they get washed at all!
my biggest question is - how long does this stuff stay on the sprayed surface ? maybe i should spray my car and it will never rust? ))
poobum fart?
Seen this on a futurology fan site, guessed it was going to be around by the 2030's. Glad it's here now! :P
see instead of coating a toilet brush... why not just coat the fucking toilet?
+Rambi Great idea !
+Rambi Someone should try that and document the results. I'd think that you'd have to turn the water off and maybe clean it first, though.
+Rambi Because then all the water and poop would fly out *duh*
Wow, I gotta try this stuff!
i can use as a contraceptive method?
This is INSANE! I never wanted a cleaning(if you could call it that) product so badly!
wow
such dry
what if you sprayed an ice cube, would the spray just not attach
No it would attach, but just untill its melted the most outer layer of ice then it would work
Can u spray this on youre body? so my body dont geat weet?
If you do you are risking getting cancer.
IAmSirZak So, YES you can!! Don't beat around the bush dude. Just say yes or no.
if its a rikst to geat cancer then he shuld tell me.
just dont let the girlfriend know. we like them nice and wet ;)
how do u know that?
So how long does it last on various surfaces? I imagine if it's very durable then putting it on the bottom of a boat hull will increase speed and lower fuel consumption. Again, assuming it's durable.
I would assume that some of what a boat hull does is based on the relative friction that exists between the hull and the water. changing the surface angles as drastically as never wet does, might be interesting to see. Would it affect the boats stability or resitance to tipping over?
Damn Daniel back at it again with the white vans
can you use it on the soles (underside) of your shoes and be able to walk on water? :-P
Jesus Christ, you're stupid.
thebagofsalt Jesus Christ, the exact right thing to say when talking about water walking. Kudos.
thebagofsalt Joke went right over your head.

I think you've missed a couple of comments!!
Some friends of mine were talking, and this product came up. One of us asked, after playing "Yandere Simulator" that morning, if he coated a knife and his clothes, there will be no evidence the knife was used to kill.
The conversation stopped there.

Stop Wasting Yellow Mustard
I love that shit
aitosha mussin BLEHHH
You can only apply it to white shoes though because it leaves a baby powder type of coat on it
Wait...if you sprayed this on yourself....wouldn't this mean it would never wash off? Think about it...
Would it also mean you'd never get dirty?
Whoa...
Mr. Khan holy cow...
+Mr. Khan And bodily fluids wouldn't stick to you... maybe...
KesorodaBlk well that could come in handy
These guys are going to be rich
Sad but the product flopped.. the CEO had to sell his 1.2 million dollar home for 650k but u didn't hear it from me
Alex Jay Oh My God. Why did it flop?
Alex Jay Its still production right?
+Alex Jay if hew was able to buy a house for that much it never flopped
@@alex_is_shook No it didn't. it's 2019 and you can buy Neverwet EVERYWHERE.
Will it jizz proof floors across america?
Looks good but how long it lasts is an important factor. Will it work on a windshield? What about cold temperatures will it allow frost to form. It could be very useful if it deters rust. I will try some...once to see..twice if it works..
What about washing clothes? What about odors?
Perfume?
I haven't used this before, but I bet some of it will stay after it's washed, so you'd need to coat it again. As for odors, it's probably smell-free (is that a word?)
If this product works for real there shouldn't be any problem. You know, odors are directly product of fluids, they shouldn't stick to the covered surface unless, of course, the formula wasn't completely effective yet. I'm still skeptic.
The real question is will it be affordable without a big ecological footstep and also does it cause no harm to us when using it on our cooking gear?
its highly toxic, causing damage to the brain and nervous system so no?
ArseLoad0fMetal666 how toxic is it compared to acrylic coatings?
That last nerdy asian guy got some serious muscles. Girls will be all over him, he's got brains, hopefully a lot of money and muscles.
he is hmong
Bruh r u gay
Tht0neL3gend Maybe, maybe not. I might be a trisexual.
Erik Galindo It doesn't matter what's my sexual orientation is but we know you're a discriminating troll. Hope internet's anonymity and trolling others makes up for your insecurities.
Hey you wrote the gay comment not me. Don't get mad cause I put you on front street. Since when is sending one message considered trolling? I have no insecurities but it's nice to know your still shy about coming out of the closest.
If you spray the inside walls of a glass tumbler with NeverWet but not the inside base of that tumbler, and then you fill up the tumbler with water or with another liquid of your choice, like mustard, will it form a mustard tower inside the tumbler? Can you take a photo of the mustard tower and upload it very soon?
So if you got in on your hands, you can't wash it of?
good ?
What if it was poisonous. Gotta Eat KFC witha fork?
@@tofulover777 it's fork-licking good.
... How do you wash your clothes???
you dont becasue it will never get dirty!
***** what about the stink no perfume or colonge will be on it
Ashley!!:)
No sweat will stick either.
***** There goes my mind... Thanks.
The water will still enter the uncoated side...
Is this harmful to our insects and animals???
Why!?! When maybe you can walk on water with this product!
It's awesome, but never the less, some idiot will hurt a person or animal with it.
Melissa Leasure That can be said about anything..
I sprayed my dog, now he never needs a bath and his feet don't get wet. I didn't spray any insects because I like to drown them.
Spray it on insects and animals and they'll never drown
Will this product when applied keep tape fro sticking to say a metal light pole? That would be awesome to apply it to say the lower 8 feet or so of the pole and no ne could tape there garage sale signs etc... how about spray paint? Would it not allow that to adhere either? Major graffiti fighting tool!
I wonder what would happen if you coated yourself with it then went swimming..... I wonder
great question actually
How toxic is it?
Don't spray it on food and eat it. That's all I have to say.
Stone Temple Pilot - It would come out the same as it went in...
Not as toxic as most fortnite players
@@sammygreenbw lol
Jacksfilms needs to do a parody of this
What happens if you breath it in while spraying and it gets in your lungs? How about your eyes? Will it ever come off? How so? What happens if you want to wash your favorite shirt? Can you remove the layers?
Lots of safety issues to be addressed here. Has this product even passed inspection of any sort?
Your insides will turn NeverWet™
Yeah, right! Then you buy it (like i did) and it says "Do not spray on clothing or electronics."
That's why i bought it!!!
I wrote to complain and "Rustoleum" wrote back saying it wasn't their video.
VERY misleading! Save your bucks
you could shower with your phone :o
now THIS is the future
***** a damned one
So many bad reviews for this product. Good thing there's a better product that really works.
Oh yeah? Please inform us of said product....
Looks fantastic and will get it for sure, but will it weaken or breakdown fabric specifically shoes ? Thanks
Note: Opening and spraying the iPhone like this will VOID the guarantee! You will not be able to go to the Genius Bar or receive AppleCare. Do not do this!!!!
Theoretically, could you walk on water if this was on the bottom of your shoes? o.O
SHUT UP AND TAKE MY MONEY!
You don't spray it into the ground... so I'm not worried about that. But I am curious to see if it's safe to use on your clothing and such. Will there be some side effects from essentially applying it onto yourself or your clothing?
no podrian ponerle subtitulos!!!
WHY ARE KETCHUP BOTTLES NOT LINED WITH THIS?!
you're not the first one to think of this /watch?v=5yFMyeaCKhs
Personally, I wouldn't want food containers to be lined with a new product. After many years, when it has been extensively tested for health issues... then maybe. I can live with annoying ketchup way more than with gradual poisoning.
What if you got some spray in your eyes? Would your tears shoot off your eyeballs?
+FeelTheLack Hi You added a comment to my video about the Ron Wyatt and the blood sample. I am trying to contact you so we can talk about this subject. I would like to fill in the details for you. Message me on youtube and so we can talk. I am atenorforjesus
Once u add this do need to keep on spraying next day or dose it stay there forever
is there a point to this crap? What would you really use it for? What if it gets into the waterways? And if you spill gravy on your shirt then it will fall on your carpet.
spray your carpet

From the - Material Safety Data Sheet -
*"EFFECTS OF OVEREXPOSURE CHRONIC HAZARDS:*
May cause central nervous system disorder (e.g., narcosis involving a
loss of coordination, weakness, fatigue, mental confusion, and blurred vision) and/or damage. Reports have associated repeated and prolonged occupational overexposure to solvents with permanent brain and nervous system damage.
PRIMARY ROUTE(S) OF ENTRY:
Eye Contact, Ingestion, Inhalation, Skin Absorption, Skin Contact"
It also comes off as a fine powder when touched or with normal usage and will then come into skin contact and be absorbed into the skin and/or eye if rubbing it or around it and be inhaled... when it comes off as a powder... as it does with normal use (according to other youtubers who tried this).
I would rather be soaking wet than be exposed to this.
You could possibly use it to prevent pot holes on asphalt.
If care about ur carpet you wouldn't be eating gravy (a messy food) while on your carpet 💁💁
I bought some 6 months ago.. still have not found anything to put it on...
cloths., NOT - what? you are never going to wash them? and if you do this stuff comes off.
shoes? if you like a milky film on them and plan to spill mustard on them, can't remember doing that my whole life. Not even catsup..
Electronics? tells you all over the instructions NOT for Electronics
Plunger,, really? I have a life...
like I said, 6 months, maybe longer, still have not come up with idea.. . it's not clear like they let you believe
You buy this if you need it for something. don't buy it if you have no need for it, thats just stupid. and just because you don't need it doesn't mean other people don't. Also if you haven't used it how do you know it comes off in the washer???
xXSIMPSXx because I watched the videos first and then bought it with things in mind, then read the details that are on the inside of the package, like washing it removes it, if you spray it except a foggy film, I wanted to use it on some electronics, they have in bold (inside the package) not recommended for any electronic. So there you go.
What about an umbrella? So when you return home it will be completely dry.
Or maybe an ice cube to see what happens when it blends
xXSIMPSXx they say it on the instructions about washing it. I bought it for some electronics, first thing on the instructions after you open packages says NOT for electronics. You asked I am telling you.
hahaha and it seems like I am repeating myself, did not remember I replied.
Why did you buy it?
so this is what all those video game characters are wearing
Looks a great product, could anyone please tell me if it will stand up to soapy products ? Would it break down or fail if in constant contact with soapy water ?

NSA is on to you!
Phenomeno1902 dammit! You blew my cover
Nice to know I am not the only one who thought this!
Who knows; you might even be able to kill them with the same substance!
Its nevermind bruh
I dont advise spraying that on your carwheels before getting it out of your garrage on a rainy day. However you can rub candlewax on clothes and shoes then melt the wax into the fibers and in between with a hairdryer, dont blow too much, just till when you see the wax melting and getting inside. However it works for watter, i dont know about the rest. Best way is they're awesome product.
+Sid Cipi That sounds potentially dangerous, so no.
Yea like how can you even clean your clothes if you spray this stuff on or you just don't clean your clothes which would be pretty awesome if they don't leave any residue behind, think of the possibilities of just 1 pair of clothes for life and all the money you can save on cleaning alone!
:) I am joking but you get the idea, might have to go pick this up, wonder how toxic this is though.
It's not toxic, however don't eat it :p
does it work with dog shit!?
What is this sorcery. 😲
Hmmm i wonder how it affects sweat if you put it on the inside under arms of your shirt will the sweat just glide down your sleeve?
Yeah, it is cool. But all presented stuff are solvable in water so technically you are just showing the same thing repeatedly. So:
1) Show me how some other liquid with different surface tension behave - like oil, fat, wax
2) Show me how the layer is resistant to abbrasion so that it doesn't wear off in few minutes
If it can bear this then it would be truly awesome.
Well they did gravy and that is almost entirely fat and it bounced off the guy's shirt.
As far as I know, gravy contains less than 10% of fat. Well, depending on how it is made. Thanks for pointing that out anyway.
dlakodlak What about mustard, it has a pretty high lipid tax. Oil Fat and Wax has high lipidious taxes, thats why it doesn't solves in water, so its basically the same thing.
dlakodlak I have made quite a bit of gravies and they have almost no water. It is usually left over fat from meat (that jarred stuff probably is using a vegetable oil though).

That may contain cancer
I think that you should figure out what cancer is.
i think you should read the back lol
Favian Casas You don't understand what cancer is... Cancer is nothing but a dehydrated cell. Your muscles undergo cancer after you finish working out(the right way), which is why it is important to stay hydrated...
Ammon Eaves
nope
Ammon Eaves You really need to take a biology course. Cancer has to do with abnormal cell growth.
Safety first. I like the fact that one of the guys uses heavy-duty gloves to handle the hazardous mustard.
My question is... How do I wash it out my clothes?
like si vienes del gif
one word.. CANCER
Great product, is this intended for only one time use or lasted for long time?
This product has some great uses, but did you ever think about what happens when you sweat (under your armpits)? If you spray the whole shirt lets say for a small child, what happens to all that sweat under his or her armpits? the shirt usually absorbs this, but will it just run down your side?
Better living through chemistry. Really awesome.
So does using this on your phone and putting it in all the holes and ports won't this affect you being able to charge the phone since it will be coating the inside that makes connection with your charging cord that has to receive electricity?
+Spencer Strunk never wet.not never zap
I decided to bath in it I will never rust or have any thing stick to me ever again thank you neverwet!
