The paint when applied in the exterior wall of the building it not only provides a new look always but also keep the building water proof by repealing water by its super hydrophobic nature. Due to high value of contact angle water forms spherical droplets on it. The paint film designed to achieve nano roughness of Cassie-Baxter regime on the surface and lower contact angle hysteresis, hence water droplets roll off easily from the surface providing self cleaning effect.
