Doesn rain wash the dirt off any surface?
No. A standard masonry paint allows the rainwater to sit on the surface, leaving it damp. Dirt accumulates and combines with the water, damaging the appearance and creating a fertile habitat for micro-organisms such as algae and fungus. Even after several years, StoLotusan Color shows significantly lower soiling than other facade paints. Practical tests conducted by respected building institutes have shown that StoLotusan Color can provide a reduction in soiling of up to 80%.
