What is Gellet?
Gellets® are colorful absorbent beads that disintegrate on contact and begin their dehydration process.
Does it hurt?
The BIGGEST question….These are considered projectiles and they are fired from the blaster with a mechanical motor and piston. At worst case (up close not recommended for fun) may feel like the sting of a rubber band. Most of the time the Gellet will splat on impact.
Is there a huge mess?
The gellet is designed to splat on impact in most cases. However not all the time will the gellet make contact with something causing it to splat. In the event that the gellet remains whole it will dehydrate and disappear within a time period depending on the temperature humidity, environment etc…..
Does it stain clothes?
There are no staining issues since the gellet is appx 99% water based. There may be gel residue on an article of clothing etc….but it can be washed, rinsed or left to dehydrate and disappear on its own.
