 Imagine your sweaters being able to repel water like that.... Think it would work for snow?

Its out now? The only thing I've read in the past is that it wrecks breathability. So you can't cover an entire garment in it.

Exactly what I had suggested in another thread. Knees, glove palms, shoulders (if your carrying gear and such) completely coat your pack with it to keep contents dry, etc...

That would be perfect. It definitely does affect breathability but applied in a few areas it would be nice

Would it work on the bottom of boots so snow doesn't stick to it? Or pn skis or bindings?

I can't imagine it being durable enough to last very long on your boots, but it would be cool on the topsheets. The real question is... what would happen if you put it on your bases?

It would be impossible to stand still. Your skis would constantly propel you forward.

Aha I think I suggested this to in that other thread...? I gotta dig it up at some point. I think I also suggested goggle lenses if it could somehow be applied smoothly and clearly without hurting the plastics of the goggle lens. Soooooo many uses though.

You could spray it on glove liners or thing like the new saga gloves to make them completely waterproof

I'm afraid that if I bought it for my Janoskis it would change the color on them.
