What we learned

Ultra-Ever Dry is amazing stuff, but its applicability isn't universal. You need respiratory, skin, and eye protection to apply it, along with a well-ventilated area in which to do the application (doing it anywhere inside your house or apartment is, frankly, ludicrous). You don't want to put it on anything that's going to come in contact with your body. You don't want to put it on anything you're going to cook with, eat with, or anything you have to see through. You also shouldn't put it on plants, pets, or your children, no matter how awesome you might think the results would be.

On the other hand, it is a great fit for things you need to remain water-, dirt-, and oil-resistant. You wouldn't want to apply it to your car, but you might want to spray it all over your bike. It's not a good idea to coat your underpants with it, but a pair of work boots or work gloves would be just fine. (For the folks who suggested that we apply it to a diaper and then apply the diaper to an actual baby: what is wrong with you?) Driveways, walkways, and other areas with a tendency to collect ice are good candidates, too, but mind the runoff.
