Fabricating amphiphobic surfaces is often complex, difficult to control, and time-consuming, making the fabrication process very difficult. Herein, a facile and time-saving modification method using a mixed modified solution of stearic acid and perfluorooctanoic acid was initially proposed, which played a key role in the achievement of the superhydrophobicity and highly oleophobicity. The effects of reaction time on surface morphology and wettability as well as the content of perfluorooctanoic acid in the mixed modified solution on wettability were investigated to determine the optimal experiment parameters that maximized the amphiphobicity of the surfaces. The as-fabricated amphiphobic surfaces displayed high oil contact angles of 133.5°, higher water contact angles of 156.8°, ultra-low water sliding angles of less than 5° and excellent self-cleaning properties. The facile, easy to control, and efficient method can provide new insights into fabricating amphiphobic surfaces and can open up a new way for the basic research and practical application of amphiphobic surfaces.
