Flood/ppg FLD6-04 Floetrol Latex Paint Conditioner Qt

Product Description

The FLOOD/PPG FLD6-04 Floetrol is a latex paint conditioner designed to improve the workability and finish quality of water-based paints during spray, roll, and brush application. Added directly to latex paint, Floetrol reduces tip clogging and helps prevent piston freeze-up when using cup guns and airless spray equipment. It improves spray pattern consistency and promotes better surface coverage. This product is used by painting contractors, maintenance professionals, and experienced DIYers working on interior wall and ceiling applications where a smooth, uniform finish is required.

Floetrol is suited for interior painting projects where latex paint is applied by spray gun, roller, or brush. It is particularly useful when spraying with cup guns or airless sprayers in conditions that tend to cause tip clogging or equipment wear. When rolling, it reduces the pressure needed on surfaces and minimizes paint buildup along the edges of the roller pattern. It also helps reduce surface holidays, the small skipped or missed spots that appear when brushing or rolling interior walls, resulting in a more consistent, spray-like finish.

Installation Notes

Floetrol is mixed directly into latex paint before application; follow the paint manufacturer and Floetrol label directions for proper mix ratios. Painters should ensure spray equipment is clean and properly maintained before adding conditioned paint to the system. Do not use with oil-based or alkyd paints. Proper ventilation should be maintained in interior work areas during application.
