Cooling paint is very interesting, and I see a huge potential.

My main concern is how the pain reacts to exposure to not only UV light, but also dust and dirt. I would think that as the paint eventually gets covered with various kinds of deposits, the cooling effect will decrease.

Can the paint be cleaned easily? Would the properties of cooling remain, even if covered in a layer of dust and other deposits?
