Salvage Wet Devices with the Incredible RescueTec

— October 19, 2012 — Tech
You no longer have to throw out your valuable phones and MP3 players if they accidentally get wet when you use RescueTec. This simple system will save your liquid-soaked gadgets so you won't lose all the vital information you have saved on there and you don't have to go looking to buy new ones.

Made up of a specially formulated compound, the RescueTec powder is "like a magnet to water," as the video explains. Place your phone or other gadget into the packet and let it set in the powder for 48 hours.
