The Lotus Effect
New to the North American market, Lotusan exterior coating mirrors the natural behavior of a lotus plant as hydrophobic qualities let dirt glide off the surface along with water. This "self-cleaning" property creates an exterior wall that is highly resistant to dirt, mold, mildew, and algae. Studies show that after three years, the level of germs on a surface coated with Lotusan was 90% lower than that of a surface coated with a conventional paint product. Available in 38 standard colors plus custom options.
