Very interesting.  I love the example of using a box as a cooler.  I wonder how often you will have to reapply and how much it will cost.

They've had it at my local HD (or maybe it was Lowes) for a few months now.  Pretty neat stuff.

Yeah...I wonder how that would affect connections. And a 6" protection depth is pretty worthless.

Still a neat product. I am thinking kids clothes and stain protection.
