Re: Ultra Ever Dry Superhydrophobic Coating
I think that is like the paint that they put in an alley somewhere because drunks
were pissing in the alley.
After they painted it, if you were to pee on the wall, it bounces back onto yourself.
Pretty good deterrent.
I paid extra before for a hydrophobic Coating on eye glasses.
As far as I was concerned it was a waste of money.
I think coatings are pretty lucrative now so prepare for more.

Kinda like Rain-X. I coated my windows in a new 84 Volvo with it before going on vacation to Florida. I was driving thru Mobile when a frog strangler summer rain broke out. Cars were pulling over for lack of visibility and we were rolling right on by with the wipers turned OFF. There was a ball of water the size of a silver dollar circling on the drivers side window in a vortex behind the side mirror.
I bought a pair of shoes from a drug dealer the other day. I dunno what he laced them with but I’ve been tripping all day,

Re: Ultra Ever Dry Superhydrophobic Coating
Last pair of specs they insisted putting on some kind of coating, don't know what it was supposed to do except extract more $$$ from my pocket. Within 6 months said coating started to scratch & flake making my $500 specs less useful every day. Went back to the previous ones, no coating.Structo wrote:I paid extra before for a hydrophobic Coating on eye glasses. As far as I was concerned it was a waste of money.
On some things, photo lenses f'rinstance, a proper coating can make all the difference, to the good. No more on my eyeglass lenses. Well, black maybe...

Re: Ultra Ever Dry Superhydrophobic Coating
The video is pretty amazing, but I have to wonder how carcinogenic the coating is.
