Glass itself is a liquid, so why call it liquid glass ? Just say spray on glass.

This sounds promising.

Gotta be a gazillion applications that would benefit from a surface coating like this.

no need for condoms anymore....just spray on some glass and you are squeeky clean!

Could I put it on golf balls to keep them like new?

Sounds like VIP

Can’t find anything harmful about it? Oh, give them time!

I wonder if it works on hair? Water off a ducks back. ;)

Maybe, but I prefer the liquid version — because it raises eyebrows.

It’s a FLOOR WAX!

Not to be confused with Sir Philip Glass who is neither liquid nor solid (ok, mostly liquid)

I’ve never considered glass a liquid. Unless it is introduced to high heat.

Not spraying that on my weiner.
I wouldn’t want it on any part of my skin.

Sounds like silica gel ("water glass"), a staple of home "chemistry sets" of the fifties and sixties. All kinds of fun applications.

I wonder if this liquid glass will fill in gouges in windshiels caused by sand and gravel.
