Ross Nanotechnology Introduction

There's slick and then there's slick.

Ross Nanotech produces NeverWet coating - for which I may just be first in line because it's so cool. They're presented as being super-hydrophobic, meaning that they repel water and any water-based solution - with remarkable efficiency.

A little hydrophobic coating - ScotchGuard and the like - prevents some staining on fabric, but a superhydrophobic coating would make fabrics nearly unstainable - at least from any water-based liquid.
