Hey Ben, would this work on a shirt or windbreaker? My windbreaker keeps on
getting soaked during my mourning jogs in the rain.

This channel continues to show me things that I have never seen or thought
of. Unique content is hard enough to come by, but your streamlined format
makes it even more easily digestible. Thanks, and great work. 

GREENPOWERSCIENCE says:

Awesome video Ben!

Cottage Life DIY says:

Another great one!

ROBwithaB says:

Hmmm…
So, being of a scientific bent, perhaps I should do an experiment to see
elephant whether you DO actually *read every comment, ever.* Such elephant
experiment will consist of repeatedly typing a secret code word into
elephant the body of this comment and then requesting that you how reply by
answering how many times elephant a particular pachyderm was mentioned in
my comment. Oh, and interesting video, by the way.

ClTRlS says:

Holy crap, EVERY single comment!?

Counter The Animator says:

So I’m scrolling through the comment section and I see you reply to
everyone’s comment, so I’m jelly.
Ah well your videos are very interesting, as long as I plan to study
engineering.

Jacob Rohrer says:

U won’t read this

MoustacheGamer says:

i doubt you read this one :>

Matej Kesan says:

Super cool, thanks for sharing. Did you do any durability tests to see how
long it stays superhydrophonic with wear and tear? I mm asking coz I would
like to waterproof my boots! :)

CookinWithCows says:

So can’t you just use silicone spray? I remember buying some for my old
gasoline RC car

Doc Awful says:

Read every single comment? I’m calling shenanigans. Regardless, I always
enjoy your videos.

Can you solve a Rubik’s cube?

NoahHasMinecraft says:

This is why out of all my subscriptions NHIL takes first priority. He cares
and listens, and that makes his channel all the more better.

TheWertyu says:

read every single one?? HA i bet you haven’t read this one yet 😛
love your vids :D

Assassin says:

Are you reading this one?!?!

Christopher Murray says:

How durable is the coating?

Daymian Hogue says:

YO NHIL any idea if this could be put on the home made Minimalist
Running/Climbing shoes you did you a video on? Or does this only work on
specific substances like concrete, glass, metal?

Yextus says:

Hey I just wanted to say that I think your videos are great and I think
it’s amazing that you have read every comment on all of them, thanks for
the amazing content keep it up

Kingkevin108 says:

Awesome video! Normally I forget to leave comments, but I wanted to make
sure you knew that I really enjoy your content! 

GunPla Fixation says:

Hydrophobic coatings on windshields… Get on that, car manufacturers ;)

Mr. Anthrax says:

Hey NightHawk, do you think I could use this on clothes?

Peaceful Manatee says:

Wow how many comments do you think you have read in total?

Brian Ruechel says:

Too cool. Thanks for the vid. I bought a Thrunite Archer 2A like 6 months
ago and I love it. Great company.

Flyerminer says:

This was really cool! do you think something like this would work on
clothing, without leaving that white and cloudy residue on it?

NightHawkInLight says:

This video was a bit of a collaboration with Dan Rojas over at
GreenPowerScience. A link to his video on the subject is in the video
description, along with some links to check out the ThruNite flashlights I
show off at the end. Take a look!

Luci Craft says:

hey NHIL! can you please take picture of this ,this will be amazing in
desktop picture 🙂 1:13

Mark Stoklossa says:

2:12 I thought you’re gonna say something different… ^^

GunFuMaster says:

What’s the limitation for spraying it on?

Grant Thompson - "The King of Random" says:

Awesome video! Dan Rojas has so many amazing ideas.

WalcomS7 says:

This is undoubtedly cool. I kind of wish you would have gave some ideas on
how to use it in a practical sense. My imagination doesn’t function well at
work.

B0M0A0K says:

Great video, could you please tell me if it matters what version of
clearcoat you usae? I fee that you are using for this example Krylon
colormaster clear – is that gloss, matt etc? I am trying to be specific
because I probably won’t get that here in the UK, but may get a similar
product that will do the same thing?

Jolan Lacroix says:

Your flashlights are so cool!How much did the little one cost? My dad is a
patrol officer and needs a good flashlight that fairly small. 

MiningNinjaz says:

Do you really read every comment O_o?

Alltime10s says:

pretty cool..

Elaine Maez says:

Love all of your DIY projects! I was a scientist back in the 1970s & 80s,
so the geek in me enjoys your postings.
The hydrophobic products are such a useful innovation for us common folk.
I’d love to do the steelwool fire twirling with a baton (yes, I once was a
cheerleader). Has this been done?
Now am subbing!

Jay O'Neil says:

How long does this last? I would like to use it as an undercoat for my car
but not if it wont last..

Ronny Rafoo says:

GREAT video! I’ve been looking for a cost effective way to dirt-proof my
dirtbike! From your personal experience do you think this method be
sufficient to keep mud off my bike or should I stick to Never Wet or Ultra
Ever Dry?

Tex81024 says:

you should consider talking to thrunite and seeing if you can get a
sponsorship and coupon code going with them

TheHarleyEvans says:

does this work against hydrocarbons as well, or just water?

Frame of Essence says:

Is the coating flexible enough to work on umbrellas?

Mizztah D says:

How long does this compute stay bonded for? Could be extremely useful…

FEARLESSGaming says:

Did you read this comment?

Yogi Bear says:

Hi night how r u nice vid

7Dimensi0ns says:

I just want to say thanks for making this video but especially the one with
aucustic water suspension, i am going to use that experiment at my school
science fair and put a cornflour and water mixture onto the speaker to get
some cool results too. =)
