But if it reduces air porosity, then it may increase sail loading, so sticks that work in a kite from the factory start breaking in a treated kite? Just a thought.

Wonder how many cans it would take to cover the green octopus?

More to the point - teddy. When we flew him at Basingstoke it took a lot of inflating - it was almost as if the zips were open.

I would be very suprised if this was anything new, just a bit of flash marketing. It looks to me just like any other polymerised fluorocarbon protection treatment. The technology has been around for years. We make something very similar at work. Its what I coated my old trailer tent with and it never leaked. Its what I coated dick's tent with a couple of years ago, that only leaked because Tom stabbed it whith a carving knife. I keep trying to get Collin to try it on his Killer Whale, one day  |

No problem.
Consider it as good as done.
The only question is when?
