Waterproof surface: a perk?

I would not include it in Sealed. Being wet causes you to get cold because of water evaporating off your outside, not because the water gets into you.

I don't think the name of the perk is as important as the mechanical function here. As someone once famously remarked, it can be called Cabaret Chicks on Ice, but it will still do what it does.

And I would include this effect in Sealed, since if you are Sealed, you're sealed against the environment - even the watery bits. For reference, space suits give the Sealed advantage to the wearer.
