I've seen this done with candle wax: melt down a white candle, you can use tealight candles if you wish, and coat the match stick in the wax
wax somewhat waterproofs them like maybe 2 of 5 done will work right.
Now here's one better; clear fingernail polish: take your match sticks and coat them with the polish then let them dry, ive seen matches dunked and sit in water for 2 to 3 minutes and still light almost every time!

i just tryed to do the nail polish trick on normal matches, like you get from the liquer store, it DOES NOT WORK! use stick matches for this to work properly.
