This revolutionary surface treatment causes water to form nearly perfect spheres that roll off coated items, keeping them clean and dry. The pack contains a 2-step kit consisting of an aerosol base coat and an aerosol top coat that will cover approximately 1m².
Rust-Oleum NeverWet contains breakthrough technology that protects surfaces with a superhydrophobic treatment that dramatically repels water, mud, ice and other liquids. This revolutionary new class of treatments causes liquids to form nearly perfect spheres, which shoot off the surface keeping items clean and dry. It also guards virtually any surface against corrosion and wear caused by exposure to moisture.
Rust-Oleum NeverWet causes water droplets to form a contact angle of up to 165 degrees, more than three times the contact angle of an untreated surface. When a liquid hits an untreated surface, it pools on the surface, like a deflated ball, causing the item to become saturated. When water, mud and ice contact a NeverWet treated surface, the extreme contact angle causes the liquid to form nearly perfect spheres, like marbles of water. The spheres then glide off the surface, keeping the item clean and dry.
Applications
Rust-Oleum NeverWet can be applied to almost any surface including metal, wood, aluminium, PVC, concrete, masonry, asphalt, fibreglass, canvas and most plastics. It can also be used on fabric, leather and canvas but is not recommended for clothing.

![]() | Question: How do I prepare aluminum for coating with NeverWet? Is phosphoric acid or an etching primer suitable? What about sanding? |
Answer from Rawlins’ Technical Team: No need for an etch primer or an acid treatment. The surface can be sanded with a very fine grade of wet and dry then the surface wiped with methylated spirits using a soft cloth. The NeverWet basecoat should adhere quite well following this preparation. | |
