While not technically a gel, water washes off other gels from surfaces and objects. It has no special properties in regards to gameplay, and does not stick to surfaces.

=== Slime ===
Slime or Sewage was found only in Portal during Chell's escape, and is not always considered a gel due to the fact it has no emitter, is not used to solve chambers, and the player cannot "paint" with it like with the official gels introduced in Portal 2. Regardless, it does have some properties similar to some gels in Portal 2, such as the slippery effect of running on Propulsion gel and an adhesion effect that keeps the player stuck on the ground.
