Explanation

Hi defbrown,

Unfortunately, Spanish is not as flexible as English in that it does not allow free creation of verbs or adjectives from nouns. If you wanted to use an invented word, you could say "suberizado/a", but if you want to be correct you will have to paraphrase saying "impregnación con suberina" OR "impregnar con suberina".

Good luck,

Álvaro :O):O)
