 * COMPARING WHICH LIQUID SOAKS BEST THROUGH T-SHIRTS**

The experiment was to find out which liquid (water, tonic water, sprite, and oil) would be repelled off of t-shirts best using rain-x. Tonic water was thought to be the most repellent liquid out of the 4 liquids. The 1st step of the experiment was to pour Rain-X onto a t-shirt in a circle. The 2nd step of the experiment was to wait about 3-5 minutes dry. The 3rd step of the experiment was to place a few more shirts under that. The 4th step of the experiment was to pour 10 ounces of liquid on the center of the shirt. The 5th step of the experiment was to place a hand under the shirts to see where the liquid stops soaking through. The last step was to record the data and repeat until all the results are done. In the end it was concluded that water repelled best of the 4 liquids with only soaking t-shirt. The liquid that didn't work well was tonic water soaking 2.1 t-shirts. In the end in 2nd place was oil with 1.25 t-shirts soaked and in 3rd sprite soaking 1.8 t-shirts.
 * ABSTRACT**

The experiment could improve the experiment by doing everything the same but adding the rain-x on the t-shirts as well. Some experimental improvements would be to compare the Rain-X to different water repellent or to put the Rain-X on something other than cloth like glass.
