The only thing it repels is your money from your wallet.
I was thinking of a comment but after this I stopped lol!
theres something about watching a grown man squirt mustard at his shirt that makes this a great review
'I'm covered in wine and condiments' with a logo might make an awesome Freakin' Reviews shirt haha.
It’s amazing to watch these videos ,to know what’s out there cause most of the time I don’t see these things due to being in Canada. I’ve never even heard of this product but I’m sure it will come here in a couple months. Now I won’t have to look for it cause it doesn’t sound like anything I want to try now. Thank you for saving me some money.😋
Just doesn't seem to work. Thanks for a great review. (subscribed)
I wonder if spraying more of the product on the t-shirt and the pillowcase would have given you better results. It looks difficult to tell whether you actually got good coverage on the material with no missed spots. I would like to see you put ketchup or mustard on treated Fabric, and then try to wipe it off immediately. I'm curious whether or taking the condiment off immediately, before it has a chance to soak in, has any different results. Great videos, thank you!
I think you should have saturated the fabric more with the spray maybe it would work better, who knows
I would love to see you test the Rust-Oleum Neverwet.
Video demonstration was great & thorough!! I seen a difference, but tbh it didn't impress me at all!! Did it have a smell after it dried down?
Great job with the testing to try and give the product the best chance of working. The brown pillow fabric may have been treated with a repellant from the factory. It seems like the benefit you get on the other fabrics doesn't justify the cost except maybe for the non-porous shoes.
Good point on the pillow! I originally tried a scrap of carpet, but realized it already had a repellant, too. It definitely works on some fabrics.
Oops, had brain slippage. I meant the porous shoes, sorry.
Great demo as usual. I just wanted to say I have the 8 oz bottle of the Australian brand. I actually bought 4 of them because they were 4.99 a bottle on sale. I have only used it on my coats to repel the rain and it works great. Also, I used it on chair cushions and they are still clean. I didn’t dare to test it like you did lol. Keep the demos coming.
I didn't expect the catsup to bead off. It looked like Heinz - the slowest catsup in the West.
Love your reviews so much!
Thank you for your review!
1:58 you HAVE to make a tshirt out of that - people would buy it like crazy
Brilliant! I know someone who works at a t-shirt shop and maybe I'll get one re-created!
Great review as always! I would like to see how it compares to Scotchgard.
Try using it on your car seats if its cloth and or the carpeted floor mats. I've used both fabric guard 303 and Scotchgard, they both work amazingly. For best results, try leaving the treated items in the sun for several hours and reapply once more before testing with water. Good luck and keep up the great work!
Can't believe you wasted all that good wine!!
On your final "white t-shirt" test it seems to work pretty well. In my opinion the question is not whether the ketchup just slides off, but if it is absorbed. I also wonder if there my be some "user error" in the application. LOL
I don't know of any brands that carry a widely applicable hydrophobic material, but the idea is certainly real. Making it a reliable nontoxic spray seems to be hard, though.
I was glad when you tried to wipe it off because that's what I do when I spill something on my shirt. Quickly saw that it really doesn't work.
Didn't seem to be worth the money to me... and to have to put it on the fabric then wait 24 hours or more just to wear once then have to reapply after washing?? No thanks...
for the shoes, the smear on then heat up candle wax trick may work better and much cheaper. ?
try used repel well on a mat and small blanket and a shorts and pair of hats.
I'd be interested to see you do a side-by-side review of actual 2-stage hydrophobic spray vs camping waterproofing spray. They're very different products but I don't know if the benifits of either would be worth it outside of showcasing.
try making a mud hole to walk through and see how your shoes and shirts work. make one a watery mud like a mud puddle and one a little thicker like a off road 4x4 mud hole.
Coleman makes a repellant designed for tents. I would like to see a comparison with that. Greetings from Indiana and thanks for the great videos.
wonder what would happen if he soaked the white t-shirt in repel well and then let it dry, as a final literally dumping the bottle onto the shirt letting it soak for 10 minutes or so then drying it so it penetrates the fabric.
1:58 his shirt is a masterpiece would pay all off my money for that
Take the porous shoes through some mud and see if white socks stay clean. Great video!!
now you need to test a detergent !! I just found your reviews a few days ago great job !!
watching a grown man dump various condiments on his shirt and then bounce around is far funnier than it should be. Excellent review
Saw this product today. You've probably seen it or already have it but could you review the THERMAPULSE RELIEF WRAP? It's supposed to be a heating pad that you wear like a shawl that has magnetic clasp and also has a massage feature. I'd love to see your perspective on this product. Thank you.
"I'm really not the bathroom selfie kind of guy"😂🤣😂😂. Thank goodness! We don't need any more of those! 🤗
Go right a head and shop in that disgusting shirt. "What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas " 🤣🤣🤣
Looks like you would have to apply layers to get full benefits. I wonder if rain x could do a better job.
Love love love your sharp with in this!
I’m wondering how it came out in the washer. Did the treaded side come clean or at least cleaner than the untreated side. Also I’m wondering how the treatment holds up to washing machine. Does it need treating after washing or does it last.
How do the clothes look after you rinse them with water? Maybe it will help u prevent stains?
RepelWell seems expensive and it didn't look like it protected the fabrics very well. I'd like to see a comparison between RepelWell and Scotchgard. I've used Scotchgard on occasions and have gotten very good results with it for liquids and fair results with grease and oil based stains. Plus I think Scotchgard is cheaper. Scotchgard does have a smell when you use it goes away.
Naw I'm not buying it James. Don't seem to work!😗 thank you for great vid
Did you wash the white t-shirt and/or pillowcase after? I'm wondering if the stains would come out on the RepelWell side. If so, that may make it worth it.
I give it like a 20% have you tried the new outdoor Christmas light from the same company I forgot which one but it's a slideshow I seen it on The infomercials for about 39 99
Hey Paul, I did try Star Shower Slideshow, if that's what you mean! ua-cam.com/video/0y8lv8_LL1c/v-deo.html
Yes that's the one I was talking about
I'll be watching for it I thought about getting it but I don't know yet
You should try never wet cause I heard it’s Waugh better
I keep watching your videos and as seen on TV ads. IDK why
Test the aerosol version of these kind of hydrophobic spray
what about neverwet? there a few different version of hydrophobic products on the market rainx..scotchguard..etc
This guy needs more subs he deserves it
Carpro Cquartz fabric works good
There's a Scotch spray product that does something similar seems to work better
Honestly, do you return the products after reviewing them or toss them? OR, do they give you free things to review.
How much did you put on each thing? I would expect that materials with higher porosity would need more treatment...
I sprayed them until they were wet but not dripping, then I applied a light second coat, and cured for 48+ hours.
Can you try neverwet? Similar product but apparently works much better
Not a great product. Are you going to do the Hydra Light? Looking forward to that review, I want one.
I'm working on HydraLight now. That's my next review!
Compare it with scotchguard
Am I the only one who was hoping he'd take his shirt off? Yeah? Ok..
where did you get the nikes?
I think I got them at a Nike store here in Vegas!
Lol I don't like Mayo neither... Yuck!!! 😝😝😝😝 You should try the "sleep number" mattress next...if you could! I know mattresses are expensive!
Should have pitted this against Never Wet.
Now I don't have to change my underwear for a whole week.
master bass I feel the same way James as you were pouring all that stuff on I was saying o no I don't think this spray will work hmm and to see that you even gave it longer time I knew that a product would make it hard to use it that most of the time it's done for but you kept trying you did make me laugh with the joke you said I laughed walking around and that you pig a little so funny well ty again for the review have a wonderful Christmas to you and your family
If your looking at repelwell as repewell will I want you to look up repewell on google then go to images and look at the pictures
I think I'll just stick to Scotchguard...lol
I'm pretty sure the idea here is to repel water based products so something like chocolate sauce probably isn't gonna be repellex
Maybe you could do a test of - Treat it, let dry for 24hrs, Treat again let dry 24hrs. vs a 24hr Treatment, see if there is a difference.
Slo Vivian is behind the camera recording
These product work by increasing the surface tension of the fabric that it is applied. Therefore, once the surface tension is compromised they do not work as well. It seemed to me that the sticking was much worse after you poured water on the shirt corrupting the surface for further testing.. I suspect that to do a real test that you would need to use a clean treated shirt for each test. After all you'd have to be a real klutz to pour water, wine, ketchup, mustard and salad dressing on yourself at the same meal. IMHO
It did not bead off here.
Try multiples coats
How do you wash that shirt? checkmate
Why don’t your videos have ads?
looked like camelback mountain in the background for a minute at the very beginning the commercials water the ketchup and mustard down so it runs almost like water
I think “Never Wet” is a much better product in the hydrophobic market
So rain x for fabrics
Kiwi camp dry or nikwax products would be better.
I wonder if maybe you didn't use enough
Man pouring wine on himself... 🤔
Repel ok? Thanks bra!
Youre not putting enough product. you literally need to saturate it.
Meh, this isn't like the comercial but, usually you don't throw condiments at yourself.
What a waste of money!! Sorry you wasted your money!! Thanks for the review!!
Definitely not worth the money, even though it worked on those one pair of shoes. Thanks for the review😃
Say bead off ten times fast.
Never wet is better
You're gonna have a serious ant problem
This sounds like generic Camp Dry.
People are nutz buying this stuff.
dood! they're gonna take u away on Jan 1 :*( we watch you alot
-b
Use on a hat
What a waste of 🍷.
For 30 bucks it's a garbage product. Definitely not worth it
Thanks. So basically it's pretty useless
Fail
Rubbish
Quit speaking so fast. Jesus...
