The Ion-Mask enhancement is a new plasma technology devised by P2i, a company that's part of the UK Ministry of Defense's programme of commercialization of government technologies. P2i uses "patented plasma technology to treat everyday objects with an invisible mask that repels oil and water, without altering the look or feel of the treated object…invisible to the eye and undetectable to touch".
