Wonder how long this would last on a pair of boots, or tent.

Pretty impressive. Found it for sale at $63.00 a quart. Other info says a quart should cover about 40 sq ft.

Very cool, but it doesn't seem to have much application for field gear. The YouTube video I watched says that regular handling with bare hands, exposure to soap, and abrasion will all cause the coating to fail.
