Sounds like the material itself is pretty good/recycleable , since its based off Lexan already. But I wonder what the chemical is that they use to "etch?" the material into s superhydrophobic?
Anything that makes cleaning useless sounds great to me. And of course, the honey. Not that I care much for honey, but watching that drop slide was a thrill. This is going to produce sick hobbies.
