This came up on another forum I'm on. Someone thought it might reduce friction to the point of gaining measurable performance and have a possible loss of control or almost have some effect on displacement and gravity, lol. It won't stay adhered underwater let alone at speed. There have been other similar products. There have also been paints that contain other hydrophilic and hydrophobic ingredients. I could see it as a long term replacement for Woodys Wax or the much cheaper, similar Fluid Film.

Nanotechnology is amazing stuff and we're just beginning to see the results of some applications of it. My concern would be with how long it lasts. Otherwise the results seem almost too good to be true!

Neat stuff,kind of like a heavy duty permanent Rain X. I'd love to try it on my deck.I'm constantly scrubbing the blood from it.Been usung the Woody wax works good,but have to do it to often.
As Denny mentioned the longevity of it would be a concern.If it's like the water seal i put on my pressure treated house deck,that works great for only two months,I wouldn't like it.
On the other hand if it does what is says and shows in the video.it would be worth the cost.Pretty wild seeing how nothing sticks to it.
Heck just spray it on your clothes and instant rain suit,(lol). Grundens and Helly Hansen must be shivering in their boots.
