'''Repulsion Gel''' is a light blue substance that repels objects, and any player or object that hits a surface coated with Replusion Gel will bounce off. Jumping off such a surface launches the player higher than a normal jump, and the height of the jump is proportional to the distance a player falls before rebounding from the Gel. This allows the player to reach higher ledges and platforms by falling from a greater height. When used in combination of [[Propulsion Gel]], the player can travel a considerable distance, which is vital in situations in which [[Portals]] cannot be used. Objects such as [[Storage Cube]]s and [[Turrets]] can be covered in Repulsion Gel, which causes them to bounce around erratically. | '''Repulsion Gel''' is a light blue substance that repels objects, and any player or object that hits a surface coated with Replusion Gel will bounce off.

Repulsion Gel can be applied to virtually any surface, and can be placed in different locations through the use of carefully-placed portals. The Gel is most useful when applied to surfaces at the bottom of pits, at the edges of large gaps, or to closely-spaced parallel walls, which allows the player to move between them by bouncing from one to the other. The Gel is primarily used to circumvent large gaps, and/or cover considerable distances. | Repulsion Gel can be applied to virtually any surface, and can be placed in different locations through the use of carefully-placed portals.
