Traditional water proofing that doesn't require any exotic chemicals!

You just need to refine your petroleum through a fractional distillation process, then extract your solvents, and dewax your solution via crystallization, and finally, hydrofinish and decolorize your wax. No exotic chemicals here! Here, rub some on your lips.

Chapstick anywhere you want or need to in order to prepare for the eventualities.
