PAT-ADD AF 62 is a very efficient de-airing agent and defoamer. In clear varnishes, the product may cause some in-can haziness. However, typically the transparency of the dry film is not affected. PAT-ADD AF 62 is most suitable for use in acid-cured wood varnishes, NCvarnishes, epoxy coatings. PAT-ADD AF 62 is suitable for coatings, applied using various application procedures, such as brushing, airless spraying, roller and curtain coating.
- Benefits
- Best for varnishes and paints with low pigmentation
- Strong de-airing properties, requires only low dosages
- Easy to dose
- Silicone free, so minimal risk for unwanted side effects such as adhesion failure
- Inert, wide range of compatibility
