It is good stuff but I would say to on impact it stiffens, it doesn't go 'rock hard'. It will be great for biker jackets but I would not use it to protect my fine china!
Hi Pontic,
where did you get some from?

Oooh er missus

I was thinking it would be great stuff to put around my Vid camera when im using it on the bike, that way i can carry it around in a bumbag and still give it some protection in the event of any spills.
Im talking about when i use it on Enduro and trials stuff where (with me ) it happens all the time.
I try and find some.
