(Xinhua) -- U.S. public places in San Francisco are inundated with urination, and even local public works chiefs call themselves "Mr Clean," the Daily Chronicle reported on Aug. 13. To eliminate this uncivilized behavior, the city uses special
waterproof paint
to brush the walls, and people who urinate everywhere will be drenched in their own urine.

. When someone urinates on it, it splashes urine back onto the urinal's shoes and pants. Mohammed Nuru, director of public works at San Francisco, says that if a perpetrator makes a mistake, they come up with the idea that if you want to urinate, you should go to the right place.
says he was inspired by Germany. The walls in Hamburg's St Pauli district are painted waterproof, encouraging midnight drinkers to look for toilets instead of urinate anywhere.
recently, a san Francisco lamppost was knocked down by urine corrosion and hit a car. City workers are also checking thousands of street lampposts to make sure they don't fall. San Francisco appears to be the only city in the United States to use this waterproof coating, and has received a lot of advice.
many of the signs hanging on the walls read: "Wait a minute! This wall is not a public toilet. Please respect San Francisco and find the right place to urinate. "San Francisco has also taken other steps to prevent urination, such as solar-powered toilets passing through the streets on a few afternoons of the week. In addition, urination in public places is an offence, but legislative measures with a maximum fine of $500 appear to be in place.
