Allpetroaches Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Posted by Steve Quinn on 6/11/2007, 8:05 pm 152.163.100.205 Anyone ever use the paint? and do you like it better than vaseline. I am tired of scraping totes. What is the paint actually made from is it just straight high gloss enamel? Any other options out there if hear certain types of shiny metallic tape would work as well i tried it on my lobster colony and it failed miserably. Thanks for the input.

The only problem is that it needs to be re-applied every several months. THEERUIZFAMILY@NETSCAPE.NET Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess what i am asking is why does bug stop work, and would just any old high gloss enamal paint furnish the same result? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Allpetroaches Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Posted by Matt K on 6/12/2007, 5:10 pm, in reply to "Re: alternative to vaseline for climbers" 72.48.63.248 BugStop is (from what I understand) a 100% pure liquid Teflon. Its surface is not just super smooth like gloss paint, but discourages adhesion of anything to its surface. Hi-gloss paint is just slick, but things *can* still stick to it. Try it out with a Tokay gecko and see the difference. One is molecularly unfriendly towards other materials, and the other is just smooth. matt@modernmatt.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
