SPRAY-ON CLOTHING IS HERE AT LAST!!! Posted on October 24th


Ok - so this idea is still under development in secret conjunction with Bell Labs and 3M, but I am pleased to bring you an early prototype of spray cloth.

How it works:

An aerosol can contains two chambers.

1.In the first chamber is the base layer. The base layer sprays into a spider web-like mesh, which coats the surface of the body or furniture or other desired surface. This base coat is non-adhesive to most materials, such as skin or wood.

2. The second chamber contains a congealing substrate “Layer C” that binds to the base mesh layer. Layer B is chemically designed to receive and incorporate Layer C into its mesh to form a semi-rigid contiguous material.

The Base Layer acts like a spider web, and Layer C acts like very small flies or insects that get caught in the net. If there was enough netting surface, and enough flies, the composite material result would be a flexible and semi-rigid fabric. Now perhaps there is also a way for Layer B to be a fixative finishing layer which acts like a spider wrapping up the insects stuck in its net so as to keep them fixed into place.

In terms of fashion - layer C could contain various pigments, which would give the garment or cloth visual appeal. reserachers are currently experimenting with a plaid color, inspired by donny osmond, pictured below.

Preliminary research also suggests that spray clothing is also waterproof, yet breathable, and creates a slimming effect when applied properly.
