This is what I'll be testing next. I think it's best to cover it in tape/shrink
wrap THEN paint it.

hows the durability for hooks and the cables on the mirage? if i spray my mirage, gaff and game clip with it, is it just going to rub off like normal paint does?

spraying your seat would be an ideal place to start as well.

I'm sure the hooks won't hold up during use, but could help keep them from rusting while keeping them in the kayak.

kinda what i figured. so general cleaning will remove it from surfaces.

instead of coating the toilet brush, someone should coat a whole toilet, inside and out and see if it stays clean.

Good idea, but why stop there? Paint my whole bathroom and continue on paint my whole house, never have to clean again!

After seeing this stuff in use on my cooler for the last day...I don't think it's very durable. It looks like it would be great on surfaces that don't get touched or handled. The coating seems to rub off easily. I coated my fish billy club for further testing...

The stuff didn't last on my paddle pants either. One trip and it's almost all gone.

This is very disappointing news. I was hoping it would last and not be useless after one trip.

Me too, it really does some amazing applications, they're just not designed for us. I think that it will work fine on a regular paddle, but anything that get any sort of abrasion would likely not hold up.

I'm guessing it's like most other paints - won't stick to non-porous surfaces, which is just about everything made for water/kayaking.
