Drops of ketchup or red wine make most people say goodbye to shoes or clothes. But now you can forget about these problems. The situation was completely changed by a new superhydrophobic coating, which was called "Never will be".
"Just imagine that you poured soy sauce or chocolate syrup on a snow-white shirt, but suddenly, the liquid, instead of being absorbed into the fabric, just slips off it," says the correspondent of the consumer reports publication.
The developer of "NeverWet" - Ross Nanotechnology company licensed it to Oleum Company (manufacturer of paint and varnish products—. After that, the company successfully released the product into mass production at a price of $ 19.97.
There are 2 cans in the set – the base and the top layer, which can cover an area of up to 15 square meters.
Water-repellent properties can be given to literally any surfaces, including plastic, wood, fabric and even metal. The use of the tool is very simple. Apply the first layer on things, wait half an hour, after which the second layer is applied. After this "tuning", liquids are no longer scary to you.
For example, you can load an ice box with mineral water or beer in it into the trunk of a car, and not be afraid at all that there will be a puddle under it — the product will protect even cardboard from moisture.
The only thing that the manufacturer does not recommend applying the product to is electronics – a matte film may remain on the glass.
