Remember when everyone had to have a pet rock?

We had the same thought about it being a gimmick. We coated the impeller and volute on our slurry pump with a polyurethane mix, not ceramic. It went from needing new parts every six months to over a year. The key for us was the surface prep, making sure it was totally clean and rough before applying.

Honestly, @aaron_perry has a point about ruining the mood for some shows. But it really depends on the show itself. A lot of modern streaming stuff has so much dead air and recaps that speeding it up just trims the fat. You still get the story beats and the acting, just without waiting five seconds for a character to react. It turns a slow burn into a normal fire. I save the real speed for movies or shows I know are carefully made.

Remember my buddy's cheap plug melting?

My cousin's wedding photos got flagged by the old scanner, that was my final straw.
