My sister's husband loves that shit. I've been tempted to use it to (re-)shape my ski pole handles but have never bothered, and I'm not sure how malleable it actually is.

Looks pretty sweet, but shit is it expensive! You'd need to use 20 bucks worth to do a lot of the things he proposes.

The definitive fix for leaky ski boots? Any one try it for that?

Very malleable. Not as durable as he claims. Great for certain uses. Wouldnt expect it to stand up to heavy outdoor use.

just cross posting from Padded Room as I think it's more relevant here (I don't own any financial stake in this product):
just bumping an old thread to report that I use this stuff a lot with great results. For example I've added small strips inside my helmets (under the padding) to rectify slop where my mutant head has gaps.
I haven't used it to modify ski boot fit but I bet it would be handy in some applications - once the stuff dries you can use a knife to shape it/shave it down. I wonder too if you could use it to modify the flex/progressive feel of a boot since it does have some flex to it depending on how thick a piece you use.
As mentioned by other posters the unopened packets do dry out after awhile - keep them in the fridge to prolong their life and only order packets as you need them. I probably use this stuff once a month on something in the house.
