I was thinking of spraying it on the FF and the mirage drive...

silentviper 06-26-2013 09:56 AM

That's awesome! the stuff has to be similiar to what Jamie Hyneman uses on his famous white shirts.

I wonder if spraying a whole hull would make it easier to paddle?

ful-rac 06-26-2013 10:04 AM

Holy crap you can actually buy that stuff at home depot?!

possibilities.....

Went to the detail page listed in the article, price and coverage.

At Home Depot, Rust-Oleum NeverWet includes two spray cans — a base coat and a top coat — that can cover 10 to 15 square feet.

Retailing for $19.97, Rust-Oleum NeverWet will begin appearing over the next few weeks at stores other than Home Depot here and nationwide.

Would really appear to have some great potential. I wonder if you coat something and happen to miss an area would something corrisive like saltwater would get under it and cause it to lift or trap salts increasing the corrision.
May have to grab some just to play with.:D

I'm going to pick some up when I get back to san diego, I will let everybody know what I think.

RobFish 06-26-2013 10:33 AM

Just might have to try this on my waders.
Maybe even try it on the sheets that I use on third dates!

ful-rac 06-26-2013 10:42 AM

inside of waders seems like it would be awesome! they won't get wet and they wont' need to dry...should help out on those multi day fishing trips...no more soggy, cold wet waders on day 2...

You've had a third date?

makobob 06-26-2013 03:22 PM

He said third DATES.

Depending on how long this spray lasts there are endless possibilities. Dry pants that are breathable and actually work! while your at it just spray everything your wearing so if you have a yard sale while landing the only thing that will be wet is your hair! Lets see kayak seat, everything metal that rusts on your yak, truck seat, mud flaps, electronics. But like all good things I really doubt it works as good as they say for any realistic time frame.

If you watch the video it says it still allows fabric to breath because it does not seal the fabric to create a waterproof surface it uses... I don't remember exactly what the technical terms are but magic, yea we will call it magic lol

Put it on all your reels.

da22y 06-26-2013 06:20 PM

Put it on the car windshield, rain just bead off, no wiper needed.
Put it on your paddle, it lift out of water with no dripping.... :)

jorluivil 06-26-2013 06:21 PM

I'm spraying everything that's on my kayak with that stuff

Best idea ever. Dripping paddle on a windy day is the most annoying thing ever!!!

Drake 06-26-2013 09:03 PM

Things I've tested it on.

Sunglasses - Doesn't work: Way too hazy!
Paddle Pants - Works awesome.
Hooks - I sprayed a hook and put it in some salt water with a non treated hook. Testing the rust repel capabilities.

Awesome! Where/(which HD) did you find the product? I went to Encinitas and they didn't have it yet...

Lipripper92592 06-27-2013 08:09 AM

Why did they have to name a product after my ex girlfriend?????

Nope, not even close. It's actually quite opaque

vincentek9 06-27-2013 09:34 AM

i'm going to be picking up a box of this stuff and spraying it on everything!!!!! all of my reels will get a neverwet coating (outside only). my entire kayak will get this coating.

*i wonder*.. is it truely flexible? can i spray my waders with it and move around without the paint cracking.

uhh.. CURRENTLY $96.00 on ebay... :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

boxturtle 06-27-2013 09:37 AM

my concern is how our skin will react to it

I wouldn't bother. It's actually not all the durable, at least 24 hours after I applied 4 coats. It peels kind of easily. Also, it gives a very almost feels kind of furry weird texture. I'm going to spray the inside of my reels but defiantly not the outside. I was thinking about my kayak, but then I did a bunch of tests and it just leaves a milky white haze on everything.

ful-rac 06-27-2013 10:17 AM

ok got mine, gonna try it out on some stuff today. 20 + tax at the home depot. Plenty in stock when I went there, look in the paint section, they should have a display.

Drake 06-27-2013 10:25 AM

I'm tempted to spray the inside of my fish cooler. However just need to wait for the 70+ lbs of fish to move out before I test it.

I was thinking about that this morning...that would be the perfect place to put it no more blood slime and guts to scrub off at the end of the day.

I also did the center tackle storage box and the front tub.

maui jim 06-27-2013 12:09 PM

We will have to revisit this topic in about 2-3 weeks. :cool:
Just wanna see how many good vs. bad..
How many Lab Monkeys survive...:D
Who's going to spray their phone like on the video, :eek:
How hard is it to remove the coating after and, when the desired effects do not work??:confused:
I think I'll make some popcorn....

ful-rac 06-27-2013 02:34 PM

Well...just sprayed it on one of my small coolers to see if it works, and indeed it does. It does leave a rough texture to the surface after it's been sprayed though. Spraying it on a fishfinder screen probably wouldn't be a good idea, would be bitch'n though.

I guess we'll wait and see how long this stuff holds up for....

Drake 06-27-2013 06:34 PM

How awesome would it be to have completely dry hoop nets everytime you pulled them up

wiredantz 06-27-2013 07:02 PM

test it on the fish finder screen, and let me know:D

Drake 06-27-2013 07:16 PM

Frank, I don't think they have enough right now to cover all your shit. You need at least a 5 gallon drum.

you too!!!:p

FishNinjaY 06-27-2013 07:58 PM

how do you think this will affect electrical connectors? I wonder if it would help prevent salt water intrusion and corrosion, but still allow conductivity? I have a rubber boot style trailer connector to my bait tank pump that already has some salty crud and corrosion setting in. I like the idea of using it on the paddles and mirage drives also. Hmm.. :rolleyes:
