Liquipel is a coating that can be applied to your iPhone or other smartphone to make it waterproof.

Liquipel is a revolutionary process that applies a waterproof coating to your electronic device to protect them in the event of accidental exposure to liquids. It is not visible to the human eye, virtually undetectable and Liquipel will not compromise the look, feel, and performance of your electronics.

Liquipel penetrates the entire device as a whole, including all of the vital components inside and out to provide optimal protection against accidental contact with liquids.

TUAW notes that unfortunately you'll have to send away your iPhone to have the coating applied. Currently, the Liquipel coating costs $59 and has a 1-2 day turnaround.

Check out the videos below to see the coating in action!

.....works cited..... Bla bla bla...... Are you being weird or do I need more sleep?

Is this the same as the H2O company that was purchased by Zagg???

This seems too good to be true...

Put some brain cells to work. Go to their site and read the FAQ. http://www.liquipel.com/faq It even mentions toilet water.

Plain stupid - January 11, 2012 at 6:12am

It's pretty stupid when you have people like down below asking questions that only the company can answer. Really? Does iclarified look like they sell this product? Go and ask the Liquipel company...

Yeah, pretty dumb of people to post thoughts they have which are sparked by an article in the comments section of the very article which sparks the thought. Let me google that for you.

Jay - January 11, 2012 at 5:54am

But, Can it handle toilet water?

abhi86jain - January 11, 2012 at 5:40am

what happens if phone needs to repaired or open, will that break the seal or vacuum?

budsal - January 11, 2012 at 1:43pm

Probably just send it back and for $59 you to can have a waterproof iPhone. I wonder how many times you can do that before what you have is an iPhone inside of a large amber deposit from which we can extract iPhone DNA many years in the future.

I wonder if the constant connecting and disconnecting of the charger and headphone jack will wear away the layer of liquipel over time.

bba01 - January 11, 2012 at 1:27pm

Good point

budsal - January 11, 2012 at 1:35pm

You need to use a works cited if you're going to use direct quotes.

nut's - January 11, 2012 at 4:35am

then how does this work with the iPod function ? :-S can you still use headphone and what about the microphone when your calling some1 ?

Happy2run - January 11, 2012 at 4:23am

Great stuff strange you guys didn't pick it u more early should be OEM of the iPhone / MacBook etc no more troubles with rain spils etc.

Jmax - January 11, 2012 at 3:30am

Do they guarantee it to be fully waterproof? If the phone dies because of water getting into it will it be replaced?
