'''Gels''' are a gameplay [[Mechanics|mechanic]] officially introduced in ''[[Portal 2]]''. They are paint-like liquids that impart different effects when applied to [[surfaces]] and objects. Gel cannot be applied to transparent surfaces (such as glass), and will pass through grating (also without painting it). Most test elements also cannot be coated in gel, with the exception of [[Cubes]] and [[Turrets]]. | '''Gels''' are a gameplay [[Mechanics|mechanic]] officially introduced in ''[[Portal 2]]''.

This gel may appear to be regular water with an ability to wash away other types of gels off of surfaces and any objects that have been coated. It has no special properties in regard of the gameplay, and as such, does not affect any surfaces other than ones covered in other gels. | This gel may appear to be regular water with an ability to wash away other types of gels off of surfaces and any objects that have been coated.
