Dirt-Repelling Paint Job - Chamelic

It sounds more like a magic spell than a new technology - a dirt-repelling coating. Spray it on glass, metal, or plastic and… that’s it. The surface stays clean. Developed by the University of Leeds in the UK, the nanoscopic layer produces a hydrophilic surface that works indoors or out.

Several industries have shown an interest - buildings, art, vehicles, windows. Maybe even clothing. Who knows?

Chamelic, a spin off company from the University of Leeds in the UK, developed a new dirt repelling coating. The new invention could help avoid those frustrating situations in which it rains only a few moments after you finished washing your car. The new coating can be applied both internally and externally, and several industries have already shown interest in the technology which might help make our lives a little bit cleaner in the future.
