Wtf? First they say it doesn't make things wet, then they say it dries within seconds. It's one or the other. I call shenanigans. The pictures don't load.

This stuff is so cool, I'd like to throw some electronics in it just for the hell of it.

Rubbing alcohol on steel doesn't wet it, and it dries pretty damn fast.

It doesen't make the pages of something like a book wet.

It beads off of things like plastic in seconds. Sheesh, people. :p

Looks rather interesting. I can see this being a big product for a lot of companies out there.
