Gnarly Gnu Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Ultra Ever Dry https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IfUaKXasdD4 ...just not sure how durable it is in the longer term. But according to info on their flyer it is fairly tough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesailor Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Thats great but would you spray the inside of the manifold, or the whole induction/carby system. spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferris Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 I have a very simple question for you. Where does the ice actually form inside the carby? I was under the impression it formed in the needles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultralights Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 bugger the ice, i want to paint the entire underside of the Savannah with that stuff! i hate cleaning under there.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ultralights Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 carby ice can form in a few places, mostly the throttle butterfly valve, but also in the sides of the induction system just downstream fuel jet, the ice is formed when the pressure drop at the venturi causes a temperature drop, and any moisture in the air will condense out and form ice. temperate drop can be enough to allow ice to form with air up to and over 30 deg C! if the moisture content is high.

Sapphire Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 You may never have to wash dishes again and it might make a great contraceptive. Abundant uses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Riley Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 You may never have to wash dishes again and it might make a great contraceptive. Abundant uses. I've been washing lots of dishes of late but not doing too much contracepting... so d'ya reckon they'd give me a discount? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spacesailor Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 I like your diagram "ultralights", but with zero moisture, petrol itself will freeze at -60 and 20"HG manifold preasure! one of my failed theory questions spacesailor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gnarly Gnu Posted February 13, 2013 Author Share Posted February 13, 2013 so where can you buy it I'm thinking only in the USA currently - and it looks to be solvent based, if so then not obtainable via the mail either. There are other brands of the same type of product coming on the US / European market also but I think a big issue has been how to make this coating durable. I heard about a European version that was undergoing certification for coating the pointy end of airliners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dazza 38 Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 If it is durable, I reckon it would be great on the hull of a boat or yacht. And toilets, no more skiddies. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jetjr Posted February 15, 2013 Share Posted February 15, 2013 Nope they are distributing globally $200 for 1 qt of each inc $50 freight to Oz Says not to use detergents or touch too much with hands - cant be that tough. Dries hazy, Id expect it has rubbery texture so no good on outside AC. I can see some great uses though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winsor68 Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 I wonder if it repels bugs/germs etc... If you painted hospital rooms and furniture with this stuff you could save some serious lives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The next time I have a vasectomy, I'll get a few thousand litres of the stuff and paint the hospital 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fly_tornado Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 How many vasectomies have you had? I have heard you should stop at 2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapphire Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 How many vasectomies have you had? I have heard you should stop at 2. One to get the tube cut and the other when you change your mind? Sounds like a job your local plummer could handle after fixing your toilet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
