## Description

Floetrol is a water-based paint conditioner that helps improve paint flow and workability of paint. Floetrol makes interior and exterior emulsion and acrylic paints (including coloured wood stains) work more like oil-based paints. Not only that but, it also allows the paint to adjust to more difficult conditions such as hot, cold and humid environments. Arguably the most important attribute of Floetrol, it helps to eliminate brush and roller marks. It does this by improving the flow of the paint enabling for a more professional finish. The improved paint flow also allows you to make progress quicker. Unlike damaging paint thinners or water, Floetrol does all this without affecting the inherent qualities of the paint or colour. When used in a paint sprayer, Floetrol allows up to 20% reduction in pressure without affecting the spray pattern or performance and helps to prevent clogging and wear and tear on tips. Floetrol can also be used as a medium for acrylic paint pouring art. Its composition helps to create the highly sought after strong, well-formed cells most artists are looking for without compromising the colour of the paint. Ideal Uses for Floetrol Exterior painting in hot, cold or humid weather Using a paint spray gun – Floetrol helps to extend it’s life by reducing wear and tear Helping paint to flow with no brush and roller marks Reducing roller pressure and preventing paint build up at the ends of the roller Providing a spray-like finish when rolling Application Stir your paint thoroughly and begin to apply in the normal manner. If paint the pulls, sets too fast, does not level or flow properly, add Floetrol until the paint spreads smoothly, easily and provides sufficient ‘wet-edge’. Allow the brush, roller or sprayer to be your guide. To add Floetrol first shake the container well. Then add the Floetrol following the guidelines below and stir the mixture thoroughly. Now apply your paint and Floetrol

Review: Very pleased with result - Brilliant stuff. I added 10%. Was able to keep a reasonable wet line throughout when painting panelled doors with white water based wood paint. You still have to keep moving at a good pace. Am going to up it to 12-15% for the next batch to increase the flow time.
Review: Good value - Seems ok, smooth texture is given to the paint.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does this contain VOCs?**

regards scott

**Q: what are the instructions for using with acrylic gloss (painting doors)**
A: If the acrylic is water based, follow the instructions, which from memory is add 5-10% by volume. If the existing paint is oil based, use Zinsser BIN first.

**Q: The litre bottle of this says you can use it on emulsion but this one only mentions for acrylic although 500ml says for water based. Is it different?**
A: Hello 
Floetrol is an additive to extend the open time of all water based paints. If you follow the link this will take you to the Owatrol Technical Data page.  https://www.owatroldirect.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/datasheet_floetrol.pdf
Thanks Scott

**Q: How much do you add and does it reduce strength of eggshell?**
A: Hi there.
It was last year when I used this to paint my UPVC windows and doors from memory you only use a small amount but the results are fantastic. Have to say i used a paint brush and there are no brush marks at all once dried. it makes it look like it has been spray professionally painted. it does not seem to reduce the strength. I would definitely recommend you use it. hope that helps.
