Mr. Thirsty The Original Water Eater
Mr. Thirsty is reusable for many saturations. Just allow natural drying by evaporation either in the place where it was used or move to a location either over a hot air register or sunlight. Do not dry product in ovens or appliances.
Mr. Thirsty soaks up and holds over 10 times its weight in water and water based liquids. This amount is in excess of 100 fluid ounces or up to one gallon of liquids. It will return to its original size and capacity through natural evaporation allowing the product to be continuously reused.
Mr. Thirsty is 36” long, making it easy to use, easy to dispose of, and easy to store. Upon removal from the box, prior to use, simply stretch the product to its full length to evenly distribute the contents within the covering. It is common that there will be dust while initially handling until placed.
Mr. Thirsty can be molded to the shape of most surfaces where it is placed. When dried, after saturation, the product will appear stiff and lumpy. This will not affect the absorbing capacity in any way and with light hand pressure, Mr. Thirsty will return to the original granular condition for easy placement around objects or corners.
Mr. Thirsty will lock in the liquid absorbed and some swelling will occur when filled to capacity but you can not squeeze or wring it out. After repeated use and drying, some staining of the covering will occur.
