$30 spray - make iPhone or Android phone waterproof

would you try it???

A company called Impervious offers a like-named solution that, according to the company, adds water and scratch resistance to smartphones like the iPhone. There are other waterproofing solutions similar to Impervious, but they typically come at a relatively steep cost and require people to send their devices in the mail so they can be treated in a company’s facilities.

Impervious, however, starts at just $29.95 for a do it yourself kit that will cover the iPhone 5/5s or an Android smartphone. Kits for iPads and Android tablets are also available for between $34.95 and $39.95.

“Impervious is an invisible nano spray with molecules 1000x smaller than a human hair with super-hydrophobic properties,” Impervious says on its website. “When applied externally to your device, Impervious protects against spill damage and screen scratching. When fully applied to the outer & inner components of your device, Impervious is classified as IPX 7. We currently only offer full waterproofing kits for the iPhone 5, 5s and 6. When applied, your device can be submerged in (1) meter or (3) feet of water for up to 30 minutes (We do NOT recommend).”

My phone is waterproof.

Before that I used a zip lock plastic bag and it floated too.

That spray sounds like a scam or something.

There is already a waterproofing spray available at hardware stores. You can make a waterproof container out of a cardboard carton. I got a set of 3 cans on HSN and set about waterproofing my bird houses and outside knick-knacks including a large cement leaky birdbath. I'm thinking of trying it on canvas shoes.

Wonder if that is the same company that is making treatments for new car paint that does not allow any dirt or grime to stick to it?

Me and my cell phone personally? The closest my cell phones gets to water is the little bit put on top of the ice surface to smooth the ice right before our hockey games.

i would not dare spray my iphone with it!

i have had mine in an otterbox defender case since i bought it. i have seem some people say it is water resistant but not water proof but i have not had anything to happen where either of those factors was put to the test.
