Technology Overview

Traditional water-resistant coatings like wax are known for their poor durability due to mechanical softness. On the other hand, common ceramic coatings, while providing improved mechanical robustness and protection durability, often leave unsightly water etching spots and discoloration, resulting in aesthetically displeasing surfaces. RP has developed a functional coating formulation that can overcome these challenges.
