Hydrophobic resin?

General Discussion
1

Hi Everyone,

I am working on a project that requires very hydrophobic material. I have tried elastic, flexible, tough and black resin. Not much success with any of them. Does anyone know of any resin that has more hydrophobic properties? Or maybe a solution that could be put on them to react and make them hydrophobic? (I have tried mineral oil and Sigma-cote to try and coat the material to make it hydrophobic but with no success). Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You can purchase PTFE hydrophobic sprays that are commonly used for outdoor gear. Maybe that could work?

@leonhart88 I will look into that, thank you! I will give any updates if that works.
