I left my ropes and oars on shore, in a couple weeks it had all dried up and flaked off. No big deal. I don't know how someone would get the hydrated polymer on one's clothing or on tools, but again imagine it would dry up and flake off like it did on my oars and ropes. Remember, the polymer is designed to be applied to the pond, not the applicator.

Many men go fishing all of their lives without knowing that it is not fish they are after. ~ Henry David Thoreau
