German Wang Spray is Instant Condom: From Liquid Rubber To Sweet Love in One Second

A German firm has developed a spray-on condom for all your lifestyle needs. The liquid condom comes in an aerosol can that you spray onto the organ in question. A few seconds later, the liquid solidifies into the familiar latex and forms a tight seal. The company says it's a great time saver and is easier to use than traditional condoms. It's still in the testing phase (in fact, they're looking for volunteers right now) so it might be a while before it hits the neighborhood drug store. Now there's no "but I hate putting it on" excuses. And anything that promotes safety and responsibility is A-OK in our books (usually).

  • Honey, don't spray it too fast!

  • Its not the putting on part I'm concerned about. It's the "how do I remove this non-watersoluble adhesive!?!"

    Also could be fun to spray into someone's eyes when they're sleeping. :O

  • I guess the phrase "you missed a spot" takes on a whole new significance

  • i hope it doesn't disapear like a post on the Giz

  • I can't really picture this working effectively. Even if I could, sounds painful to take off.

  • What about the reservior? Just where are all the "reservior dogs" supposed to go?

  • "is that you spray-on condom in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"

  • Wouldn't it be like taking a cold shower when you spray this baby on?

    And what happens when you grab the deodorant instead of this? -
    "Mmm yeah baby, Ooo you like that. Hold on a second hun, I just need to.....!

    *Pssssshhhhh*

    "Mmmm tingley... err..... WAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

  • So instad ofpre-thinking and getting a real condom ready, you have to use some aresol can filled with who ever the fuck knows - IM sure its quite warm when it hardens, too... then you have to peel it off with a canopener.

    Ew.

  • um and the more important aspect... where the hell is all the semen going when you blow your load? For those of us who um "go large" I could easily see this bursting... which can be a very bad thing.

  • Condoms are typically electrostatically tested for pinhole defects. I see a huge oppurtunity here for improper application leading to pregnancy and disease transmission (as well as the potential to miss and coat everything in sight with liquid latex).

    Interesting idea though.

  • If I remember rightly liquid latex is difficult enough to get of your arms due to the hair. I hate to think what they will do to some one if it gets in your merkin.

  • I wasn't sure if "NEC Tag Cellphone Concept: Malleable Smart Rubber" was the title for this article, or the next one...

  • The stupidest idea I've ever heard of. I would no sooner trust this product than tying a squirrel skin to my weiner.

    A condom is not the sort of thing you want to take expiramental chances with.

  • Another very effective spray on contraceptive is Mace. It is generally applied by the woman to the mans eyes. Works a charm.

  • I hate to ruin a book for anyone, but a Ben Elton novel from a few years ago featured this as a futuristic product. Not to give away the denouement but "suffocation", "death" and "villain" are words used in the final chapters...

    What's so hard about putting on a condom?

    And another thing...does this thing have some built in lube or nonoxynol-9? Dry latex would be mighty painful for all parties involved.

  • i can see this being applied to other situations. No tjust sexual. What if they developed some sort of fire retardant spray, or anti-radiation type stuff? you know, spray on clothes and protects you from minor radiation?

    I work in a Fusion Reasearch Plant, so this would be good for me....lol

    Lethal radiation is always a concern...

  • This is just another example of theory and reality having nothing in common.

  • Easier to use?...Huh? Half the fun is having her put it on. I don't need to worry about ease of use

  • whaaaatttt? spray-on Dubble Bubble Yum?

    attention blondes!! This dual function wonder works like magic!!
    Directions:
    1. Spray into mouth
    2. Let your bf (or cousin in TX, brother in UT) "get happy". When finished,
    3. Chew it like you mean it! oh the fun.

  • Why use this when you have Pronto Condoms
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcqRSfYUfYI

  • Directions:
    Spray on generously after penis is erect (hard), taking care to completely cover organ with gooey tar-like substance.
    Quickly pinch a half to 1 inch "go large" reservoir tip, during Holidays form reservoir into Santa hat or snowman shape for extra fun.
    If you partner requires extra stimulation, take pencil or similarly shaped object and bang out ribs into shaft portion of product.
    Proceed to sex, if you feel the Spray-On break, stop immediately. Apply more product before continuing.
    After ejaculation and before penis gets soft, soak in boiling water then remove carefully with putty knife.

    Warning:
    Drugs and alcohol may affect your judgment, do not use Spray-On if you have consumed a case of beer or 6-10 shots of tequila.

  • Finally a condom that will fit my freakishly large abnormal cock.... seriously I see no use for this unless your a latex gimp and want to seal your body in latex.

  • what if you spray some of this on your pubes during application? I can see removal being an extremely painfull prrocess.

  • Looks like the outside serves another purpose when the spray leaves the man impotent

  • Can you imagine showing up on a date carrying a can of this stuff? Then we'll see the jumbo cans at Costco. Oh man...

  • Just thinking outside the box here, but it could be used to cover, um holes, also. Very nice for that overnight in the drunk tank at the county lockup.

    Seriously, though, it looks like it would be better suited as an emergency bandage like liquid bandaids, depending on how quickly it set.

  • Will it hold up to reuse or do you need a nother coat...

  • I think I would rather keep a condom in my pocket than a big spray can. I think spraying a cold solution onto my member would just bee a mood killer. Plus I am just a bad aim when I am wanting to get my groove on. Now if they had a roll on version it might actually help in the awakening if I had like a fat, fuglee or butterface. Then we may have something here!!!

  • I could see giving my cat a festive tail with this stuff but no way am I going to put it on my John Thomas.

  • I keep seeing images of Howie Mandel with the rubber glove over his head...

  • Hey this could be FUN !!! at least for the girls...

    Picture this... You spray on a little too much and you get it in you pubes and nuts...
    When you are done doing the wild thing you try to remove it but you can't because you are stuck and have a rubber jungle of pubes in your nuts...
    You pull anyway...
    The neighborhood is awake by the screams of a raving mad cat. (AKA you... the one with the nuts on fire and mohawck pubic mullet look)

    Your girlfriend/wife will most likely say:
    - Honey, That's how bikini line hair removal feels...

    Uhmmm...No Thanks....

  • um... no way, i might use it to spray on an inturder's or assailant's face, but no way is that going near my jibba jabba

  • How about using it as a condom repair kit? Just think of the increased mileage and savings ;)

    Also, spraying it on an existing condom could increase strength and decrease sensitivity, if needed. Tally HO!

  • This will never get approved by the FDA, which is a real shame.

  • I'm thinking that whoever told this guy the old addage 'If you build a better mousetrap, people will beat a path to your door' left out the word 'better.' There's no way that I'm going to apply some untested goo to my tallywhacker, and hope that the baby batter is deflected from its mark! Cap'n Donger is supposed to be the applier of untested goo, not the applyee...

    Another concern - is that thing going to blow off like one of those water-powered rocket toys when I deploy my soldiers? Or worse yet, is it going to force them to 'retreat?' Ouch!

    I'm sticking with the good ol' 'latex windsock' models (instead of sticking to the new spray-n-pray, version). That stuff must have been invented by a disgruntled lesbian!!

  • On the bright side, you could probably use it for speed-waxing.

    No back hair! In 1 minute or less.

  • Hey Barkingart, I've heard you can decrease sensitivity by rubbing a little preparation-H on the inside of your condom....

    You'll go all night.

  • Why not buy a can of liquid latex and dip your schlong in it? Screwdrivers ... peenies ... they're all the same! Oh yeah, almost forgot ... BOLD.

    Might be a life saver for the tiny percent of us that have troubles actually fitting into over the shelf normal-large sized condoms. Even the online order ones are a serious squeeze to me now...

  • finally a condom to wear when willy is sleeping....

  • Remember that one sec condom video Giz posted a while back? Wouldn't that be the fastest?

  • Well this gives 'solvent abuse' a whole new dimension.

  • This could have applications in water-proofing weapons and other objects temporarily. I don't think I'd trust my weapon to it though. It's hard enough getting hardened maple syrup off the boys.

    Don't ask.

  • As someone who used liquid latex in costume design, this is a stupid idea. Practicalities and ease of use aside, latex fucking hurts when it adheres to body hair, and NO ONE is naturally hairless down there so just about everyone will get a nice little taste of hair removal using this product. I had to rip out all the hair on my arm and hand the first time I tried applying latex without any covering. The hair on your knuckles? That shit hurts like crazy getting pulled out.

    And I needed to apply this to my head and face for the costume.

    I'll stick with a pack of condoms. They may not be as fun to put on, but the ripping of the body hair and accompanying pain is not worth it.

  • You want real birth control? Just let a girl catch you reading Gizmodo.

    BAM! I'll be here all the week. Don't forget to tip your waitress (no pun intended).

  • what if u have to pee afterwards

  • One word ladies and gents..."BackFire"
