There is this coating called Liquipel which can be done to cellphones and tablets – small mobile devices – that makes them virtually waterproof, and I was wondering if anyone has experience with it? Also, can it be done on laptops, keyboards, etc?

Leo Laporte on TWIT.TV tested this out. Had them apply it to his iPhone and then dunked it in water and the phone died. So seems like a waste of money.

This is why I don't trust Leo with any sort of test. Nice guy and all, but no thank you.
It's not snakes oil, but nor is liquipel a miracle product.

You can't coat the insides with the product, how in the hell did you think it would work?

I know Liqiupel advertises those dunks, so it's mostly their fault. But that doesn't negate the possibilities of nanocoating like products with viable soluitions.

The OP asked about waterproofing. Leo definitely proved it's not water proof and Liquipel's advertising is very misleading.

Maybe it offers some water resistance, but I really don't trust the company.

Wouldn't it make sense that since Leo can't get it to work, that the average joe won't either? Seems like a better made product would work regardless of who was involved with the testing.

Oh, I agree. I worded it wrong. Liquipel as product, wouldn't touch it.
I do think nanocoating has a bright future.

Leo's video on youtube shows that it worked...

Starts at 27 minutes

Edit: Actually at 32 minutes he says he is getting some screen dimming/artifacting? And then I fast forwarded to 1:13:30, his iphone wouldn't turn on. So it doesn't work.

did leo coat the outside cover or the internal electronics? i dont think just coating the cover will work. i did see a fone on gadget show( i think) which had its electronics ( insides) coated and i was working while inside a fish tank ( full of water not empty ..lol)

I'm pretty sure you send your phone to them and they do it, then send it back. So the procedure is not an issue.

From the website:

How is it shipped?
Protecting your device is important. As soon as your device has been Liquipelled, we'll pack it up in a beautiful tin surrounded with protective foam.
