Super Hydrophobic Spray for Litterboxes

I have been using PAM per the manufacturer of my litterbox, and the trick works great.    However, its not permanent, and it doesn't create results like this product, called "Never Wet".   Whatcha think for litterbox use?

Another interesting tidbit I found:

 

Quote:
NeverWet™ coatings were originally tested for hospital applications, where the coating was applied to commonly used materials like bed pans and toilet plungers to prevent the spread of disease-causing bacteria. As part of this process, we conducted extensive bacterial testing, examining our surfaces in highly polluted and bacteria-infested waters. Since virtually no water ever touched the coated surfaces, next to no bacteria remained.

 

Bedpans application sounds pretty similar to litterboxes, and bacteria free?  Yes please!

 

As we all know, plastic is the worst at harboring bacteria, which is why its often recommended to use glass, stainless steel, or ceramic instead of plastic food bowls.

This looks like a promising product for use in litter boxes.

Because many cats scratch the bottom of their box every time they use it.....
I do have some concerns about particles coming loose and mixing with the litter.
If that happened cat might breathe it into her lungs.

Do you know what the ingredients are in this product?
It sure would be nice to have something that is safe and works. agree.gif

Edit:
I checked out their site. This product might be available to consumers mid-2012.
The link below will open their contact form.
Maybe one of you can ask if it could be used safely in a cat litter box.
If you find out, let us know please.

I actually already did to ask where I could buy it and just got a reply back, since throwing money at my computer monitor wasn't doing anything.

Hello Chris,

 

We do not have an aerosol can product available to the public at this time.  We’re working diligently to develop something for the general public, however our overall business focus is to work with manufacturers to incorporate our technology into their products to enhance the features.

 

That being said, we are currently working with a national manufacturer on animal products and I think you’ll be extremely pleased when we’re able to make an announcement on those items!  Stay tuned to our web site for news releases and I’ll also add you to a mailing list so that you receive updates on our consumer products.

 

Thanks for your inquiry and enthusiasm!

Tess

 

Dang, so it sounds like we may see coated litter scoopers and litter boxes from the factory, but no aerosol can soon as I was hoping.   Good news though is that we could see this for kitty stuff at least.

 

Girlfriend always complained I'm too often premature when I get really excited.    I'm registered to get updates on this, so will bump this thread when we CAN actually buy it.   Something to look forward to at least.  laughing02.gif

I much rather just thoroughly clean and then spray my existing products though.  
Thank you for letting us know about this .....
please keep us updated. biggthumpup.gif
