how to create a HYDROPHOBIC self cleaning toilet!!!
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 лют 2025
- I hate cleaning the toilet! I had an idea what if I sprayed that never wet stuff from rust oleum onto the toilet. If nothing sticks to this hydrophobic surface would it be easier to clean the toilet. I couldn’t wait to try this. I found never wet at Ollies for a dollar, so there’s really nothing to lose except a dollar. So I drained all the water out of the toilet make sure that it was totally dry by using a hair dryer, then put part one and then park to just like the directions say. Wow! Wow! You have to see the video to see how a toilet looks before and after hydrophobic compounds are put on the surface.
Followup video! Need to see how this held up and if it kept the toilet any cleaner!
Not well, considering how Neverwet worked out 😬
Any update on how long this lasted and what were the effects from the urine and feces? Did it take the coating off from use?
"It looks like when you flush mercury down the toilet." Thanks Cody'sLab for making that a relatable statement.
👍
@@livefree6878 how did this hold up?
Sometimes it looks like you flush Uranus out, too
@@Rasmus348e Heyoooo
I was like wait a minute
How well is this holding up.
@Christian M. Same question
Same question
Different question
@@Woosah what's your question
@@Pyr01 what's 1+1?
I wonder if it would help in the tank to prevent corrosion, iron and other mineral build up? The inside of the tanks aren't usually glazed so they are pretty rough causing pockets for minerals to grip.
If surface is rough, feaces might be easier to get stuck onto it isn't it?

I watched and now I'm elliptical
But does it work after taking a dump
Okay. Looks cool. Does it keep the toilet clean longer? That's all that would matter to make this worth doing.
I’ve used Never Wet coatings on several surfaces, and it doesn’t last long. Toilet manufacturers should be able to come up with a way of building their products with a permanent super hydrophobic surface.
I saw a video of someone cleaning and drying his toilet bowl, and then applying a Turtle Wax ceramic coating spray, which kept the toilet clean for a year.
Nice gloves
Ahahaha
You should have simulated toilet usage by showing if it doesn't stick or streak the toilet. This would reinforce the point of no cleaning necessary.... Pour some lumpy mud or something
or runny poop
Peanut butter!
Or he could poop in it and show us
Jizz check
It’s been about three years since you uploaded this video. I’m curious, how long did it last?
Unfortunately it only lasted about three days. I tried turtle wax and it lasted a lot longer but was not very hydrophobic.
@@livefree6878 what I’m curious about is how 💩 interacts with the coating?
@@livefree6878 very sad.
How is it doing right now? After a few years?
I feel like you just created some dead zones in the basin where water doesn't touch when flushing. Those dead zones would likely start to accumulate erm... "stuff".
how did it last for?
Great video. Would have loved to see some melted chocolate bars tested at least
Either way thanks for showing us😅😂
Lol
How does this help keep the toilet clean? Isn't water needed to clean the residue off of the toilet? Which means blocking water would make it worse?
So does crap stick to it?
If you do this really you might want to _not_ put it to the sides (just center) as the water does not spread evenly to the bowl.
Amazon reviews are NOT good for this product used in toilets... Too bad - I had high hopes for this! Guess I will keep looking. A ceramic spray wax would probably work well after cleaning/prep. The wax would probably work on the sinks and mirrors too; maybe the shower door as well.
Great video And funny watching people playing in the toilet
I’m gonna stat applying it everywhere
There's a new one out of U of Penn on the market called LESS. SpotLESS, I think.
How is it lasting? It's been a year.
It last about three weeks, it is disappointing that it stopped working. Wondering if I sprayed a much thicker coating how it would hold up.
I would've used gloves
Does it help with poop stickage?
My question is the same? Does it do that and if yes then that's an idea.
Why this toilet looks so badass
You noted the rough surface when dry… how well does this hydrophobic toilet handle poop?
Even though the surface was rough it was still hydrophobic. The unfortunate thing was it only lasted for about a week and a half. Maybe if I put a thicker coat on it would be more long lasting. While it lasted it was amazing. I tried turtle wax and it lasts a lot longer but it’s not as good. Hope this answers your question
@@livefree6878 hank you for responding. It kinda answers my question. But since feces is pretty oily, with solids, that i thought might not be "aqueous" (?) enough to be repelled by the hydrophobic finish, but would instead (due to its oily-ness) snudge between the tiny bumps that make the surface hydrophobic. But if you experienced no build-up after waste made contact with the dry surface. I'm imagining a Thomas' English Muffins commercial... butter... nooks and crannies... I hink the hydrophobic property lent to the surface is from the dimensions of the bumps the spray creates on the surface... like those water-shedding tropical plants. Thanks!
@@livefree6878 Mine didn't even make it 24 hours before it started peeling off! I think constant contact with water is a problem for this stuff. It's like a rubber coating, or at least it was in mine when I had to peel it off the next day because it started coming off at the bottom of the bowl. Looked like a cool idea, but maybe it can't handle being submerged in water, or maybe it needs to cure longer.
you should have shown us how it handles poop
Hmmm. Scuff the bowl first with a Brillo pad to give the paint something to stick onto. Epoxy would last longer and some antiperspirant spray onto the wet surface of the epoxied bowl would act as your cheap hydrophobic material or even that same top coat you just used onto that epoxy. Otherwise, lol, some automotive grade ceramic paint coating. Should atleast get some years of life out of it. You said wax lasted longer so the hybrid ceramic spray wax should do even better. I’d say atleast 2 weeks to a month depending on brand. You, sir, are a true innovator trying to reinvent the wheel and everyone should be grateful for it bc someone will see this and perfect it. They’ll probably be the next billionaire lol.
I wonder if you could make a cool spiral if you crouch down and piss at the right angle lol
What happens if your poop spray is in-between the streams of water?
I gotta ask, did poop slide off also? For me, that would be the main attraction for doing this sort of toilet hydrophobic treatment.
Everything slid off, the only problem was it only worked for about a week. I tried car wax next. It didn’t work as well but it lasted longer. Hope that answers your question👍👍
@@livefree6878 thanks for the reply. I've used it on my plastic camping cassette toilet in efforts to keep everything clean. I haven't tested solids yet. Fingers crossed.
water is not spreading from all the peripheral nozzles. So water wont wet all the surface. Everything sticks and stays where it is. Bad idea I guess.
I need this for the glass in my shower
Hi friend, did you make another test for durability?
I haven’t done another test since this one. It lasted about two or three weeks. I’ve heard people using turtle wax. It won’t be near is hydrophobic is this stuff maybe it would last longer.
@@livefree6878 Ok friend, thanks for your fast answer, have a nice day
👍👍
"now we'll go ahead and flush it just to try get as much out as we can" - guy who has no idea how a toilet flushes
Turning the water off and flushing it will actually lower the water level sitting inside the bowl.
The water flowing down into the pipes causes a suction effect which pulls more water out of the toilet bowl.
Cool! is it like teflon?
It does kind of act like Teflon, do you want to why somebody never made a toilet with Teflon.
@@livefree6878 ok
Awesome dude
Was never worried about WATER sticking to my toilet bowl
It's a year later! How's it going with the toilet??
Unfortunately this coating only lasted about a month. It’s slowly got less and less hydrophobic as time went on. I wonder if I laid it on a lot thicker, I’ve heard some people using turtle wax. It was amazing while it lasted.
@@livefree6878 I think you need to let the neverwet dry for 24 hours before making it come into contact with anything
So it's been a while since you did it, have you noticed a difference on how clean it stays?
So far it’s working pretty good. The water doesn’t stand up like it did when I first put it on. But I haven’t touched the bowl with a brush since I put it on. It’s still clean, I wonder how long it will continue. I was thinking about letting it go for another week or so and possibly do another video showing what it looks like. You can still see the water beat up but it doesn’t seem as hydrophobic as the first day.
how would this help clean the toilet? the walls being wet help from them getting dirty. now you have dry walls. and worse yet the water from the flush won't even try to clean it since it doesn't cling to the walls. this doesn't make sense to me.
So your don’t have poop water all over the inside of the toilet. It sinks n stays to the bottom and runs right out taking any “matter” with it instead of sticking to your toilet... u kno the classic “skid mark” lol
@@christianthomas1877 This also traps bacteria underneath the solution to sticky poop is simple
1.Eat a better diet
2.Get a toilet with stronger psi
3.Lay a thin sheet of toilet paper inside of the bowl before doing your business
id like an update video
Imagine entering the bathroom and see some dudes playing with the toilet
Then you join them and all of you get caught by someone else.
How long does it last before it wears away and needs respraying?
It lasted about two weeks, it was really cool while it lasted but it was kind of a lot of work to get it on there. I’ve heard some people use turtle wax I kind of want to try that and see if it last longer.
Needs praying? As in using it as a kneeling altar to do your praying? Or as in praying for it ??
I wounder if you sandpaper the surface before spraying it would stay on better?
I wanted to do this to my To prevent dirt rings
It was amazing while it lasted. I would say that it lasted about three weeks. I was considering trying it again but giving a lot thicker coat for the second spray can
Are skid marks a thing of the past?
It was great when it worked, after about a week and a half effect kind of wore off. I tried some car wax, this is working a lot better not quite as hydrophobic but it’s lasting much longer
How's the car wax holding up? I have some Turtle Wax ceramic and I'm interested in giving it a shot.
So does poo stick?
And Teflon thinks they just invented this lol
Why are we not making everything hydrophobic
No doubt, this coating worked for about two or three weeks. I wonder if I put a thicker coating if it would last longer. I also thought about using turtle wax to see if that was a possibility. It be great if it came from the factory hydrophobic
The guy who downvoted thinks his shit don't stink.
Great... So now you have time to clean everything around toilet.
put some led lights in that toilet n u got a loght watwr show
LEDs at the top of the toilet would be so cool, the hydrophobic affect lasted for About a month, I was really hoping it would last longer.
Put this stuff on a urinal, and men would run to the bathroom to play with it every hour. :)
I also want to know how durable this has been. Followup thoughts?
It lasted about a month, I wish it lasted longer. It was absolutely amazing when it was working. As time went on it got less and less effective. I’ve been considering trying turtle wax. I know it won’t be quite as hydrophobic, but maybe it’ll last longer. Maybe there’s some other methods of applying it thicker that might be beneficial. Not bad for a first experiment though.
@@livefree6878 Thanks for following up. it looks like there are some commercial products out there as well designed for this. Ceramic coatings for car paint are incredibly durable too so maybe that's another option? Bummer that didn't pan out!
@@livefree6878 I think the box actually says it does eventually break down, all you're supposed to do it apply the 2nd coat again. But you're right, I think it also says to apply additional coats for longer lasting effect. Maybe try again and see if that's all it takes (Time lapse). Also try melting candy bars for solids.... Lol.
When you do have to clean it with a scrub brush it will take the never wet off 🤣
There's a product for this called spotless materials toilet coating. Looks decent.
But I really want to see car ceramic coating in a toilet!
This stuff is super-hydrophobic and super-oleophobic which makes it water and oil resistant
It has been 2 years? Please provide an update.
It worked great for about one week. It’s like everything wore off pretty quick. I tried car wax and it lasted a lot longer but was not near as hydrophobic. It would be great if the stuff lasted.
@@livefree6878 thanks for taking and replying on an old post.
How long did it last?
Probably a couple of months, I was really hoping it would last longer. It was really nice when it was working though. I wonder if I went with a thicker coat
hmmm ok water is not stick to the toilet but what about shit? If shit sticks but water not then you will not be able to flush shit marks :D Please take my question seriously. I'm very curious of that how this work for flushing haavy load after deployment
STOP TOUCHING THE TOILET
The worst part is you touching the inside of the bowl with your bare hands 😳😳🤮🤮
Now do 2 day review all gone
What about the turd
dope
It was so cool for about two months, then the coating wore off. It would’ve been so nice if it stayed on indefinitely. Definitely dope.
Omg him touching the inside of the toilet is grossing me out so bad I can't watch without cringing. 🤢🤮
@Contrarian DC That escalated quickly🤣
Contrarian DC lol take it easy man it’s not that serious, God bless you!
He could’ve used gloves.
NOW TESET IT WITH SOME BIG SHIT
Poop will stick more
Gross. Should have probably cleaned /bleached the bowl before filming this.
Flat
Strobe warning? ⚠️ thanks for the seizure
Thanks a lot.... Just tried this and now I can no longer use the toilet.
(Update) My bad. I accidentally use Homophobic Spray. It wore off after a month but it was a very abusive month.
How long did it last?
Unfortunately it only lasted about two weeks, it was absolutely amazing for that two weeks though. I’m wondering if I spray a much thicker coat if that would help. I’ve seen people use turtle wax, it works a lot longer but it’s not near as hydrophobic
