Default Ultra ever dry, who has some?

So I've seen this product online and looks amazing. Is there anyone who has some they would sell me? Does it work as well as it appears to? Let me know cuz I'd be interested in some.

I looked it up. There is an ars technica article on it. It sounds like it has terrible solvents in it:
The Internet-demanded, partially scientific testing of Ultra-Ever Dry (in HD!) | Ars Technica

"The Ultra-Ever Dry coatings in their liquid state are based on xylene (bottom coat) and acetone (top coat) and emit powerful amounts of fumes. Applying the coatings to anything inside a house or apartment is absolutely out of the question. Even outdoors, coming anywhere near the stuff requires nitrile gloves and a P100-rated respirator fitted with organic vapor filters."

If you intend on using this on electronics, it'd pass on it. Those harsh solvents would quite possibly damage the circuit boards. If you'd like to waterproof, look into potting epoxy instead. That's what manufacturers use. It works well for me, no failures so far.
