It is knit pile fabric or commonly called, sliver knit fabric. It is what you would typically find on a paint roller cover.

I'm not an expert in any of these areas. However, I do know that something needs to be done about this enviormental disaster. I commend Monterey Mills for stepping up to the plate and looking for a solution verses sitting back and watching it. They are not letting an opportunity pass by. That's why successful people are successful!! They find a need and fill it, regardless of the ridicule. I do have a question for Monterey..will this open jobs in the Janesville area?

@sampaguitap

We certainly hope so!

@TheNavchamp I think we should be more worried about the massive amounts of oil that is killing them, than the 2.5 minutes of sunilght that they might not get. come on now...

what's the name of this material ???????

Ahhh it sure is great to see someone putting their genius minds to work for once! What a fantastic and perfectly feasible idea! How did the tests at the Gulf go? I haven't been watching the news or anything lately, so I don't know what the latest is from the disaster. It might even already be cleaned up and I wouldn't have the foggiest! XD

Your product is amazing. My state is in the middle of its own oil spill disaster. I have e-mailed the Natural Resources & Environment the link to your video here. I hope they contact you. Maybe you can contact them as well.

I can't put a link in this comment box but here is the Number to the State of Michigan DRNE 1-800-662-9278

I'd like to suggest that you do the test in a washing machine. The machine can simulate the action of the ocean. If the test mat is removed while the machine is still runing, and has the same ratio of oil/water as in the still test, then BP would be crazy not to use the idea. If you do this, please post a video of it on YouTube again. Thanks!

@ladymjburton - Thank you for your comments

The tests in the Gulf went very well and BP has asked me back down this week for a second meeting

[KristinSchip]

you need to definitely send it into some news channels and as many places as possible, looks like the best "feasible" idea thus far.

[maximumgravity]

Awesome demonstration.

Have you all experimented with adding a few tablespoons of Dawn dish soap, or some kerosene to simulate the effect dispersant has on the oil. and comparing the results?

[ladymjburton]

@TheNavchamp its is much safer than any chemicals that will kill them off completely. and im sure the oil blocks out light as well. the net like idea posted above wouldn't hurt the fish any more than a fishermen's net would.
