It's weird to watch the NeverWet chemists pump chocolate syrup onto a pair of white shoes and to see the syrup roll off in ribbons, or when researchers dunk an iPhone into a beaker of water and then pull it out and use it.

Waterproof and water-resistant products have nothing on NeverWet. The superhydrophobic coating, now available in stores, repels liquids like you've never seen before.

Imagine being able to take your camera/phone/e-reader to the beach, or using it in the rain, and never worrying about getting it wet. That’s the promise of NeverWet, a superhydrophobic coating that repels just about anything.

In 2011, the developer of NeverWet was deluged with interest in the spray-on coating that repels water, mud, ice and other liquids. Initially intended for industrial use, a consumer version is ready at Home Depot!

Rust-Oleum's NeverWet Multi-Surface Liquid Repelling Treatment looks like frosted glass, but this amazing coating repels water like nothing we've seen.
